A PICTURE IS A SECRET ABOUT SECRET, THE MORE IT TELLS YOU THE LESS YOU KNOW. DIANE ARBUS
​ZARYA ARTIST / LEIF HOLMSTRAND

2 - 26 Sept 2018

We start this autumn together with our new resident Leif Holmstrand (1972), an artist and a writer from Malmö, Sweden. As a sculptor and image maker, he is versatile and has multiple signature styles. In his practice, textile works alternate with furniture based assemblages, digital photo collages, sound installations and performance art. The hierarchy of materials he uses is not very evident: expensive silk obi tend to have the same value of expression as houshold waste and found garbage objects. In his work, cooperations with Japanese artists and other cultural workers has played an important part. In Vladivostok he is going to present a performance piece and installation based on local shamanistic tradition.
