Today is the final day to experience Celestial Bodies, the exhibition by Diana Orving.
Presented as part of the Milles exhibition series — an ongoing project that places the total work of art of Millesgården in active dialogue with the present — the exhibition invites contemporary artists to create site-specific installations in relation to the unique environment of the Artist’s Home and sculpture park.
Within these spaces, Orving’s suspended textile sculptures enter into dialogue with Carl Milles’s mythological and celestial universe. Silk, linen and abaca intertwine into ethereal forms that evoke clouds, wind, plants in motion and birds in flight — creating an atmosphere suspended between earth and sky.
Celestial Bodies reflects on transformation, gravity, and humanity’s eternal desire to transcend boundaries, where past and present meet in a poetic and cosmic encounter.
Millesgården continues its ambition to remain a place for artistic exploration and innovation through encounters between historical legacy and contemporary artistic practices.
