The Sixth Sense: Art in the Diocese of Västerås
Mårten Medbo, Malma kyrka, Köping
"Like in a fable, small monkeys wait in the medieval church of Malma. Made of stoneware, in clean grey tones, they encounter each other, the visitors—and the gloriously blooming interior, decorated in Art Nouveau style over a century ago. Mårten Medbo brings both sculptures and stories into the sacred space."
