OLLE OLLS & ELLEN EHK ÅKESSON
PRIMEVAL SPLENDOUR
MARCH 10 – 31, 2018
Silversmith Olle Olls invites ceramicist Ellen Ehk Åkesson to a joint exhibition inspired by the innate primeval force within each of us.
Olle Olls presents archaic vessels consisting of rough and raw vases and bowls. His style of expression is both sensual and coarse, strong yet vulnerable, and a testament to an emotional outpour which has been hammered out without descriptive words.
Ellen Ehk Åkesson presents enigmatic sculptures made in experimental ceramic techniques. Her point of departure is the Småland forest of her childhood which, to this day, is where she goes to seek out inspiration and find peace.
From vastly different materials, Olls and Ehk Åkesson convey a sense of affinity resulting in a joyful and unbridled encounter between the two.
Artist talk: Tuesday March 13, 5.30 pm.
