Anna Clarén, "När allt förändrades", 2018, illustrated on the cover.
"My visual world is born in everyday life, in the closest surroundings. In this intimate sphere - the ordinary, almost inconspicuous - I want to see and highlight the grand. I am a mother of three living in a suburban villa near the capital. My life is neither exotic nor extreme, nor marginalized or glamorous. I depict a reality that I believe most people can recognize. In this ordinary everyday life, I seek the big, universal questions - those that deal with the goals and meaning of life, the longing for belonging and community." - Anna Clarén
