Eye Candy: More Slow Art

Book bowl

Today’s post is filled with black and white shades. Quite a change to the pink and green items I normally dive into, but it’s all good! I find myself drawn to black and white (clothes and patterns) a lot lately, so it’s also a reflection of what I find beautiful right now. Also because I had to share a few more photos from my visit to Nationalmuseum and the exhibition Slow Art there. I brought my “big girl camera” and the 50mm-lens. I havet’t brought out the big camera enough this year, so to bring it to the exhibition was super fun. I hope you like them!

Love the paper bowl above, and this glimmering dress made out of shards of glass:

And more very beautiful paper artwork:

This kind of paper art is waaay out of my leage, but since I’m mostly a paper artist I swoon when I see things like these. The time, the patience, the preciseness… Oh my.

Owl feather vase
The “Owl feather bowl” is another favorite, that makes me wish I owned it. But I think I might use the inspiration it gives for some kind of project. Some day.

Freeking amazing right?

  1. Hi Hanna – I’ve been meaning for ages and ages to write you a note and just say how much I love your blog. I’ve been reading it for a few months now, and I keep meaning to write and tell you that. But, since I mostly do my blog reading from my iPhone, it’s a little harder to leave comments. Anyway, I truly enjoy your embroidery, your paper art, your warm and open way that you write and share. I feel like even though we’ve never met in person, that I have a friend in Sweden! (I’m writing to you from Florida in the USA). Thank you for taking the time to do your posts – they are a little spot of warmth and comfort in the big world. Your true admirer and blogland friend, Jane

  2. TRULY amazing–WOW! At each photo I was thinking how brilliant the item was. I so love art museums! Extra bit here…I just read a book, The Madonnas of Leningrad, that has the most vivid descriptions of works of art that you feel like you’re there. Thanks for sharing your photos!

  3. I think you could make a spectacular paper bowl! I really do — and I would love to see one Hanna-style! :)

  4. Oh my indeed!! I love paper art and these photos are truly amazing. I’d want to read the bowl rather than fill it!

  5. As usual I LOVE your photos! The bowl is exquisite! I would love to pin it on my Paper Art board. I don’t think I’ve seen anything like it before. Any more info about it that you can share? I am thinking I will need to attempt one of my own now….and yes it does make me SIGH.
