Sweden for Beginners is an imaginative journey through the spaces, the life and everyday world of this Scandinavian country, a way to experience beyond the power of words.
Field recordings and material from various Swedish settings form an audiovisual live performance. The artwork will be surrealized as an affective expos through live improvisation. Stereotypes of Sweden, like the Bergmanesque gloom, erotica and nature romanticism are invoked in this imaginary journey through Sweden of yesterday, today and tomorrow.
