Artist
Barbo Bäckström was a Swedish sculptor and visual artist born in Djurö in Stockholm’s archipelago. She studied at Konstfack in Stockholm. She is most known for her sculptures and reliefs made of iron mesh. She has created numerous public sculptures, many of which can be found in Malmö and Lund. The forms which Bäckström works with are derived from nature. Using iron mesh, Bäckström creates human figures, often women, and details of bodies into poetic visions. Light and delicate like thin fabric, they hang freely in the space, the light protruding through the mesh, formulating an unique assortment of shadows, depth and beauty. The material is often aluminium, bronze and iron.
