Olof Marsja (b. 1986) is based in Gothenburg and was educated at Konstfack and works mainly with sculpture where the organic, industrially produced and the handmade are put together into ambiguous figures and objects. Carefully carved wood, cast metal, hand-blown glass coexist with found and roughly processed materials. The sculptures that emerge are hybrid figures that glide between visual arts, crafts, imagination, reality, history and the present. Marsja has exhibited at Röhsska Museet, Bonniers Konsthall, Havremagasinet, Moderna Museet, Göteborgs Konsthall, Sami Center for Contemporary Art, Galleri Nevven and Kiruna Konstgille. He is represented in the collections of Moderna Museet, Gothenburg Art Museum, the Norwegian Sami Parliament, the City of Gothenburg, the Swedish Arts Council, the Röhsska Museet and Västra Götaland.
Together with Red Banners, 2020
Various textile techniques
180 x 130 cm
Price: 28000 SEK
Made by artist Bella Rune in a collective process with her Konstfack/Textile master students; Alexander Jakobsson, Linette Tran, Matilda Envall, Maja Fredin, Linea Matei, Alma Winkler, Lea Constan, Malin Hallgren, Hazel Mallon, Sara Lundgren, Frida Nordelöw, Amanda Nordqvist, Hannah Molly Brown, Josefin Gäfvert and Karen Modrei. Researcher Margareta Ståhl and her dissertation, ”Vår fana röd till färgen” (Our banner red of colour) was a great influence on the work.
The work was performed in social distancing due to Covid restrictions. Together we made 6 portraits of historical red banners from working-class movement history, mainly from Sweden. Each participator interpreted a part of the original banners in different textile techniques. After working in isolation we met to put all the parts together to make a whole. On Black Friday 2020 we walked with our banner-portraits from Konstfack, Telefonplan to ABF-house on Sveavägen.
The work was made for the exhibition A Careful Strike curated by Michele Masucci at Mint autumn 2021
