In a model building I fantasized around the reality, that we consider ours and looked at it as a scenography to an fictional scenario. A scenario by nature occasional and perishable. What is behind it or what will happen when the decor moulds might not be a coming apocalypse but the creation of a new process.

I övrigt är det mest salongens leende verk som stannar kvar, när jag lämnar konsthallen. Johanna Mårtenssons fotografier som följer en stad av bröd från spirande välgång till möglande sönderfall erbjuder en lekfull civilisationskritik.

Otherwise it is the smiling works of the exhibition that remains with me, when I leave the gallery. Johanna Mårtensson's photographs that follows a city made out of bread from burgeoning prosperity to moulding decomposition provides a playful critique of civilization.
