Artist Statement:


    Annika Erixan’s work deals with radioactivity and its relationship to life’s hopes and fears. In 1986, radioactivity from the Tjernobyl accident in Russia spread through her region of Sweden, where the population is still prohibited from eating mushrooms or berries from the nearby forest, or fish from the lakes. She continues to live there with her children and create art that makes use of their situation and their will to survive.
