Cajsa von Zeipel (b. 1983) has invaded the Swedish art scene with her imposing plaster sculptures. Usually they are ultra-thin girls with intimidating facial expressions, as if they are keeping a secret that you, the viewer, don’t even dare ask about. In the artist residence of Millesgården, the work of traditional sculpture by Carl Milles clash with the giant von Zeipel girls. Don’t miss!
On display at Konstnärshemmet, Millesgården until March 22
