The Stone Woman
Art exhibition.
Erika Stöckel is an Oslo-based artist with a Sami background from Kiruna. Born and raised in the mining town of Kiruna, iron ore has been a part of her everyday life, and the mine has been the workplace of her entire family.
On the one hand it provides security, but at the same time it creates a large hole that slowly eats up the town. Growing up in Kiruna is learning to hate and love the stone. Stöckel works mainly with ceramics, creating sculptural works within an abstract visual world.
Stöckel's exhibition project The Stone Woman thematizes the interaction between nature, the body and power, based on her experiences from her own upbringing. Erika Stöckel (1989) is Risør Municipality's art scholarship holder for 2024-25.
