Petter Hellsing likes to create a tension between the safe and the
distressing. Through dislocations and relocations of motifs and
shapes, domestic textiles turn into a mysterious map of memories
and social rituals.
In a number of exhibitions and public works, Petter Hellsing
has also explored the relationship between manual work and
digital technology, as well as the possibilities of artistic work
to collect and pass on stories.
Petter Hellsing was educated at Konstfack, University College of Arts,
Crafts and Design Stockholm, Sculpture department.

Nationalgalleriet
Nationalgalleriet, 25 years of age, is run by an artistic collective based on non profit and non
commercialprinciples. The group unanimously decides what artist/show will be exhibited.
The gallery does not have a specific artistic or ideological program, but tends to like artists
with a bite, with an attitude, and is best known for its satirical group shows where absurdity
is mixed with political and social comments. When it comes to solo shows the art is varied,
from highbrow art to subversive underground.
