Anders Ljungberg

The conceptual and theorizing silversmith Anders Ljungberg examines the relationship between body, space, and object. A large part of his art is devoted to the understanding and the illuminating of everyday use through emotional, metaphorical and poetic aspects. It shows how the utility objects bear traces of human identity and are marked by history and origin.
