stenskepp by Anders Thorlin on Uddenskulptur 2025 2026
The stone ships are made from one of all the stone blocks that were not delivered to the Third Reich and were left lying along the Bohus coast.
It felt good to be able to ‘transform’ this block into something for me hopeful as the symbol of Ships that take us further with or without cargo.
It is about being able to carry a load of grief, a loss and find the balance in life ...
Which may be able to offset something lost, dead, terrible memories.
To try to transform the wrongs we experienced ...
Now frighteningly topical as history seems to repeat and we must try to believe in hope after all!
