From the exhibition text at Galleri 54 in Gothenburg:
“Åsa Dybwad Norman (b.1984) is a textile artist with an interest in social history and how it is written. Previously, she has, among other things, embroidered the coat from “Bockstensmannen” in tissue paper and immersed herself in the work of the medieval mystic Mechthild of Magdeburg through video works, embroidery, and spatial installations. Throughout, she follows the movement of textile materials through time, in search of subversive forces.
At Galleri 54, Åsa Norman exhibits garments and embroideries that relate to the textile as evidence and witness. Microscopic images of fibers from textiles at crime scenes have been enlarged and processed, embroidered. Can textile tell about a crime from a different perspective than the usual one?”
