A solo-exhibition of new nature prints, copper printing plates, textiles and video pieces inspired by the Koster Sea and the work of marine scientists at Tjärnö Marine Laboratory, University of Gothenburg, Sweden. The exhibited works were developed during residencies at Tjärnö, and at BORCH Editions in Copenhagen, Denmark. As the Oceans call out for our attention, SEA OF LOVE draws connections between printmaking, marine sciences and the passionate pursuit of finding things out.
