"Pia is also
using the riverside. Behind the library she will
place hammocks.
She will use
the trees to stage curtain-like fabrics. Paintings in the
wind - Hilma af Klint cut from sailcloth.
The act of
reading is being staged. The public will be invited to go to
the library and collect a bag of books
to take outside
and read in the hammock. Pia is talking about making a
selection of books that in one way
or another
relate to the subject of cavities, underground foot tunnels,
shadows, the upside down and inside out.
Lying in the
hammock you hear the sound of the river. A deep breath, a
pause". - from the exhibition magazine
