Artist Talk: Hannah Modigh & Ida Linde

A conversation on motherhood and artistic practice

A montage of two portraits. On the left, a black-and-white image of a woman seated at a table, resting her head on her hand in a thoughtful pose, wearing a shirt and jewelry. On the right, a color photo of another woman seated on a dark sofa, resting her chin on her hand and looking directly into the camera. She has long dark hair, tattoos on her arm, and is dressed in a grey t-shirt and dark trousers.

On Mothers Day, join us for an intimate conversation on our bar stage with our exhibiting photographer Hannah Modigh and author Ida Linde.

Together, they’ll explore the intersection of motherhood and artistic creation – navigating guilt, love, and creativity, offering the world to one’s children, and reimagining what family can mean in today’s world.

The talk will be held in Swedish.

Legacy, memory and time are recurring themes in Modigh’s artistry. Themes of heritage, time, and memory run through her practice, as does a visual language marked by subtle detail and intimate portraits captured in everyday moments.

She has published seven photography books and exhibitions, and her series have won such prizes as Photobook of the Year, European Photo Exhibition Award, and the Lars Tunbjörk Award.

She has exhibited throughout Europe and the United States, and her works can be found in Moderna Museet’s collection, among others.
