Otherworldly sculpture + soundscape exhibit opens at National Nordic Museum in Seattle

The whimsical and mysterious exhibit titled

“A Place of Oppportunity and Transformation” debuts at the National Nordic Museum this week.

Attendees will enter through large-scale immersive installations like “The Stone Garden” to explore human fantasies, fears, secrets, and truths through music, stop-motion, and... well, little egg guys (we truly don’t know how else to put it) .

Swedish artist Nathalie Djurberg uses these egg-centric ovoid shapes to represent a sort of human rebirth, following them through journeys of further self-discovery with a fairytale-like lens highly akin to the subconscious mind. Accompanying music composed by longtime collaborator Hans Berg enhances the transcendent experience.

Attendees will be able explore entrancing spaces + get up close and personal with these odd, yet endearing creatures Saturday, Aug. 3-Sunday, Oct. 27.

Access to the temporary exhibit is included in the purchase of a general admission ticket .
