Trädet, The Federation of Swedish Farmers – LRF, 2010

An 11 meter long wool painting made for the Federation of Swedish Farmers – LRF- to their newly constructed lecture room at Sånga-Säby

The lecture room is mainly made out of wood assembled after the great storm Gudrun (in 2005) from members of LRF, which has been an inspiration for the work of art. The tree is a wool painting made on needlefelt. Wool from sheep from farms nearby Sånga-Säby has been used in the work. These farms are Lindby farm at Adelsön and Orchis farm at Färingsö.
