(Material) Site recordings #4 at the Gathenhielmska garden // 200609

This time the (Material) Site recordings project collects traces in the garden of the Gathenhielmska house. The movement of the material from one public space, to the forest and back to the city makes connections between the actual places, spatialities as well as the meeting with their inhabitants.

In a corner in the garden with a backdrop of both the Stigbergets square on one side, Gathenhielmska culture reserve on the other the sculpture moves like the wind in relation to the old house of Gathenhielska, its garden and the restaurant Oceanen´s outdoor table area.

The rolling height and the body of the material sets the area and creates a tranquil feeling as the sun passes the green treetops.

In the way around the room the winds capture the surrounding trees, but leaves the fern and the yellow flower tuft solitary. The paved hallway guides us and the eye towards the surface in the center of the whirling wind. Despite this, the place gives a feeling of wanting to sit still with a book or maybe a cup of coffee.

When looking closer at the laths you find traces of text about best places and colour, moss, mold, and mycelium. What kind of marks this site will bring the material is still uncertain.
