Jag har känt på friheten

In the parking garage under the market hall, we are caught unawares by a romantic landscape. It is as if the work is whispering its name: “I Have Felt Freedom”. Behind exquisitely beautiful motifs with verdant bushes and trees, we see supports and weights that provide stability. The beautiful view proves to be a stage flat. Even the title is only superficial. Rebecka Bebben Andersson provides a map that guides us into the insecurity and vulnerability that women can experience in public spaces: “... there is always someone else there,” she writes, referring to all conceivable predators. The map exposes abuse that the artist herself has suffered and shows a discomfort that many can identify with.
