Artist Talk: Hannah Modigh & Ida Linde
A conversation on motherhood and artistic practice
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.
