Händer Tillsammans - the Anniversary exhibition
Bengtsfors

The anniversary exhibition Händer tillsammans (Hands together) celebrates craftsmanship as an art form and as a force and focuses on an experience that shows the strength of a co-creative craft network, the breadth of the artists' creative expression and the beauty of craftsmanship.

June 7 - August 31 at Halmens Hus in Bengtsfors

Together but separately; for a common hand. Together, our creative hands show what happens when creativity and community meet.

Inspired by nature, Halmens hus Slöjdarnätverk takes on the task of creating together where the common power and competence leads to exciting synergies between artists and artistic objects.

Halmens hus Slöjdarnätverk consists of about 90 artisans in different media who work together on exhibitions and artistic initiatives. The exhibition is curated by Elinor Brouang Möller, a designer focusing on straw crafts that combine traditional techniques with modern design principles. With her work, Elinor strives to preserve the intangible cultural heritage of straw crafts while adapting it for today's society.

The exhibition is part of the Halmens Hus anniversary year 2025 when the association celebrates 30 years.
