Master of Fine Arts 2000. Works as a professional artist since year 2000. Her works have been exhibited in main galleries in Sweden as well as internationally. Backa Carin Ivarsdotter creates artistic environments in the boundary between dream and reality. She builds her work in the same way as a set designer. The observer steps into her inner landscape. These sculptural installations move, sound, glow and sometimes disintegrate. Porcelain and stoneware are pushed to their outer limits when it comes to what is technically possible in size, form and durability. “The symbolic signs of dreams are astonishingly general. A lot of people recognise their own dreams when they see my work.” Backa Carins work is beautiful yet at the same time unpleasant, fragile, strong and often with a sense of humour. There lies something indefinable within. Everything is not always what it seems to be. “My desire is to give the viewer an impression of life; the encounter between what is beautiful and horrible, the beauty and destructiveness of love, and the fact that we are immortal until we die” ...
