Konstverk Corpus

Artist Carl Richard
Söderström has said that he is fascinated by how quickly nature reclaims places
that humans have created but no longer use, as he witnessed when, among other
places, travelling to Indonesia. Biological forms as well as buildings and
weathered sculptures covered in vegetation are clear inspirations for his art.

“The roundabout
sculpture represents a powerful energy that is slightly untamed. It is on the
move and opens up to change and new possibilities,” says Carl Richard. ‘Corpus’
was made possible thanks to a generous bequest from Siri Bergkvist, who worked
for many years at Värnamo Gummifabrik. The money was to go towards an artistic
creation, which resulted in the bronze roundabout sculpture ‘Corpus’.
