Episode 483: 『文化時空 』系列： acrylic contemporary artist, Hellen Söderberg

藝術，來自人心，始終人性，感動人情。二十年的台灣人生，瑞典藝術畫家 Hellen Söderberg 海倫··索德伯格 沒有錯過任何感官的機會，雜貨店裡隨時找到的臨時口譯，街道上友善親切的問候，台北高樓間豁然的老房子，古董收納櫃油漆剝落的拉門，太魯閣阿里山壯觀秀麗的山谷，社區協助外國移民籌募活動，生活點滴出現的人們都成了她創作的動力。Hellen 把這些邂垢用後火車站批發貨架上找到的緞帶貼紙彩紙點綴在照片上變成了一幅幅美麗的剪貼畫作，吸引一群群喜歡手作的同好。五年前在朋友的派對上驚艷繪畫的魔力，迸發出了另一個意想不到的藝術創作共創，Hellen 的藝術磁性從天母到士林，創立了咖啡藝廊，四年下來已經有四十位藝術家加入輪流共展。年初剛回到瑞典，還在收拾整理她不捨台灣的心和情，她始終可以從畫作裡看到台灣的姐妹們，和留在台灣的心情。Culture beyond Time and Space.  Being lived in Taiwan for 20 years, Hellen Söderberg is now back to her first homeland.  From a children’s TV show host and a drama scriptwriter in Stockholm, Hellen left to an unknown world she had never anticipated.  Taiwan becomes a cradle for her explosive talent on creativity.  Taiwanese people’s kindness, curiosity and interests to the foreigner, Taiwanese rustic worn-out paint antique cabinet door, Taiwanese mountain range scenery, the handicraft wholesale shop’s ribbons, and even a friend’s surprise party, all shapes colour, texture, and creative process on canvas.  Coming back to Sweden, she brings back 20-year and tons of life memories, faces, and lots of love from her Taiwanese sisters, soul friends and Taiwan.～～～ Photos：Hellen SöderbergHellen 和聽眾分享的音樂：Ain't no mountain high enough by Marvin Gay & Tammi Terrell～～～The upcoming exhibitions 近期畫展:Staffliets vänner at Kulturvaket during Sollentuna's Culture FestivalMay 6 | 4:00 PM–8:15 PMStallbacken, SollentunaGroup Exhibition – Ateljéföreningen EdsvikDates: May 31, June 1, 6, 7, and 8Location: Stallbacken Hellen 的網站連結hellensoderberg.cominstagram.com/art_by_sodiHellen’s scrapbooking: facebook.com/scrapmoment2000And of course Hellen’s "Things with faces" on FB 臉書. facebook.com/groups/172611462875426
