Description:
Entering the pictorial world of Martin Jacobson is like stepping into the shades of a magic forest, the traditional folklore site of dangers and adventures or - at times - of escape and refuge. In fairy tales this setting is sometimes peopled by weird animals and plants, by trolls and elves and other curious creatures, but it is not these that we meet in the exhibition 'Excursions'. On the contrary, here we find ourselves travelling through an imaginary landscape where every clearing, lake and tree trunk whispers its secrets. Martin Jacobson was born in Stockholm in 1978 where he lives and works. All the works on show here have been created specifically for this exhibition and are displayed for the first time.0Exhibition: Nordiska akvarellmuseet, Skärhamn, Sweden (22.9.2013-16.2.2014)
