MINNENAS VÄG
SOMEWHERE BETWEEN SMÅLAND AND STOCKHOLM - AUTUMN 2014
How does it feel when big changes happens in your life? How does it feel to move from a small hamlet in the forests of south Sweden to the biggest city in the country? And how can the memory of something be the catalyst for an architectural space?
During our first project at the architecture school we worked with memories from the last year. The memory I worked with was my move to Stockholm. In a series of collages and haptic models we investigated ways to form the memory into visual representations of it and then make it into architecture.
My memory became a tunnel where the entrance is much lower then the exit. This forces you to crawl into it on pebbles making the entering quite uncomfortable. Through out the passage inside the tunnel the height is increasing and the pebbles is changes to setts. You can now stand up straight and exit it by walking. This structure is a representation of my emotions of the big change of moving to and settling down in Stockholm. The tunnel is also a place I have faced several times while living in Stockholm. Big changes are recurring.
