Rosita Ståhl

Rosita Ståhl strives for poetic expression in her sculptures and installations. She employs a narrative based on her own experiences, memories, feelings and places.

For her, the craft and creators are important and the fact that there is work behind the surface.

With the properties of glass, she wants to tell different stories where light, shadows, reflections and refractions are important alongside with the visibility/invisibility of the maker.

Using video and sound, Ståhl inserts herself or other creators as narrators in the work. She wants to awaken minds and start discussions on underlying layers and processes.

She thinks about time, how long it takes to build up, master and become a skilled craftsman. And how it can fall apart as quickly as the strength/fragility of the material itself. How can we document components with meaning and value for future generations and why is there an invisible hierarchy in this field?
