Exhibition with Avart Art group, Nääs Konsthantverk, Gothenburg, Sweden 1. juli - 3. september 2017
In my opinion, Linda Lothe’s work is characterized by the same experimental desire and creative flow… her desire for color and ‘extra everything’ has got to take a step back in "Blue Collar - White Collar". Instead, she now shows a number of bowls and wall pieces… almost minutely disciplined and - at least in my eyes - slightly cuddly… I am deeply fascinated by the bowls of women at the bottom because at first glance they appear as some kind of decorative mermaids, before they transform to feeling worrying instead. After seeing pictures of several works by this artist, I find that precisely the need and ability to tell and dramatize goes as an exciting red thread through her work (Boelsdotter, 2017).
«Jag är djupt fascinerad av skålarna med kvinnor på botten eftersom de vid en första anblick framstår som någon sorts dekorativa sjöjungfrur, innan de går över till att istället kännas oroväckande.»
