The exhibition explores parenthood as an artistic method and how care, work, artistic practice, and family life can become intertwined. Through painting, drawing, sculpture, and installation, the home and the materials of everyday life become part of the artistic process.
In several of the large-scale paintings, Aldén’s children have been invited to paint directly onto her works. Their brushstrokes and interventions remain as part of the works’ creation – a way of sharing control and allowing the unexpected to shape the artistic process.
