VEE SPEERS AT VILLA DAGMAR

A new collaboration with Villa Dagmar in Stockholm. This newly opened boutique hotel in heart of Östermalm invites galleries and artists to collaborate in the social spaces of the hotel.  We chose works by the Paris-based, Australian artist Vee Speers as our second showcase.


The selected works are from Speers’ ​​​​​​​​​Dystopia, speaking directly of a world that has come unhinged. Yet even if the sun goes cold and fear is present, her imagery speaks of freedom.  

With no fixed identities, and no determined genders, the characters are heroes, shamans, and fighters who appear invincible. They seem to come straight out of some madness, a circus or a poem, from a distant past or from the future. Maybe they come from a new mythology, from Mad Max or from a Tim Burton movie.

This series is the end of a cycle as Speers brings a story which started in 2007 to a conclusion. A story for which she took photos of children for The Birthday Party, then six years later, with those same children in the midst of their adolescence for Bulletproof. Dystopia is the last act of this story. ​​
