    Motivation: With inspiring playfulness, Jenny Nordberg has taken on everything from lamps made of leftover metal to jewelery made of composite office material. With her creative approach to material selection and great artistic integrity, she shows that commercial does not have to mean anonymous or anonymous.

    Motivering: Med inspirerande lekfullhet har Jenny Nordberg tagit sig an allt från lampor av överbliven metall till smycken av sammansatt kontorsmaterial. Med sin kreativa approach till materialval och stor konstnärlig integritet visar hon att kommersiell inte behöver betyda anonym eller likriktad.

  • 18.01.18 FLUID ADD-ONS at stockholmmodern

    FLUID ADD-ONS is Jenny Nordberg’s first solo exhibition in Stockholm. Together with stockholmmodern she is showing a new series of large mirrors, big candle holders in cast glass and a new experiment with pewter mirrors. Nordberg’s practice is deeply rooted in an exploratory relation to manufacturing processes with a specific interest for two parameters – the uncontrollable and the ultra standardised. These aspects might be seen as two opposites but are for Nordberg closely linked in the way that something or someone other than her is making decisions.

    Open 18/1 – 3/3 at stockholmmodern Rödbotorget 2, Stockholm

    Jenny Nordberg is awarded “Newcomer of the Year” in the Form Award by Form Magazine for her project Brus done for Källemo.

    “Jenny Nordberg is one of Swedish craft’s foremost talents and thus anything but a newcomer. With the project Brus for Källemo, she has taken her artistic credo into a new industrial context. Brus is a beautiful contradiction, an object that is both unique and mass-produced.”

  • 16.11.18 Tin Plinth at Etage Projects

    For The Plinth Project exhibition (18/11-16-21/1-17) at Etage Projects Jenny Nordberg created the Tin Plinth with the cubical geometry of the classical gallery plinth in mind. The material in the plinth however – tin, is maybe less classical. Often working with the tension between the hand made and the machine made Nordberg wanted to explore the production of a sheet material that could be used to create a plinth. To do this she used the limitations of a studio environment as her framework, and developed a method to make sheet metal by casting tin in large molds. The outcome is an uneven and rough, almost brutal expression. The plinth and a small table are the first objects within a coming series of several industrial processes adapted for studio production.
