HER SELFIE @Lydmar Hotel

A WARM WELCOME TO VIEW HER SELFIE AT LYDMAR HOTEL.

EXHIBITION WILL BE HANGING UNTIL MID JANUARY.

”Her Selfie” – a social closet is the sequel to the film ”Her Self” – a portrait, a planned series of contemporary portraits. Her Selfie’s producer / actress Maud Karlsson and film director Martin Lima de Faria, in collaboration with Lydmar, invite you to the opening with screenings and artist talks.

Both films have been shown at the Cannes International Film Festival Short Film Corner. Her Self has toured Art Hearts Fashion in New York, World Art Dubai, Berlin International Film Festival at Creative Minds and Reykjavik, Iceland. Her Selfie has its Stockholm premiere at Lydmar. From a stylistic point of view, we can sense Roy Andersson’s later work, as Her Self and Her Selfie has been filmed by Jesper Klevenås, cinematographer behind “Songs From the Second Floor“.

The conversations promise to be extremely interesting, as the film touches upon the complexity of social media – both the alluring possibilities that tickle our curiosity and vanity as well as the tendencies of losing oneself. Tonight’s smartphone-framed version is seen in a 16 minute loop with an interactive camera that will take pictures of the viewer and integrate them in the work itself and is available in a limited edition. The photos are immediately erased. Individual viewings may be booked through: mlimadefaria@gmail.com.

MaudsArt Producer

Maud Karlsson works as a visual artist and a dancer and is a graduate from the Ballet Academy in Stockholm. She began her professional career as a dancer in New York the first 11 years. 30 years later, she now produces art work – sculpture, design, photography and paintings - through exhibitions, performances, site specifics, commissioned works and talk shows. Maud works with the concept Her Story which is the overall title of a larger body of work addressing women’s history and female stories with a multitude of artistic expressions. The work as a whole is an attempt at making the unseen woman visible, beautifying her struggles yet never diminishing her life. Bringing the past into the now, realizing the women of our own time and the continuous work that needs to be addressed in the name of equality. Woman to woman. Two major parts in the project can be shared today even though the project is ever developing and growing. Her Story - The Exhibition and Her Story - The Collections - Skogsrå. www.maudsart.se

Philosophy

We like to keep it simple and straightforward in a relaxed and informal environment. We believe in a hotel experience liberated from formalities and conservative stiffness. Calmness and simplicity is promoted rather than an abundance of impressions. It is neither the rigid minimalist look, nor the exaggerated grandness, which guests are used to in a five-star context. It is an ease of freshness in combination with a contemporary classic look, featuring culture, top quality and strong personal impressions to create the added value of belonging.

We believe that personality is more important than formal uniforms. The staff will express a more personal style and possess local knowledge about what’s happening in the town, which will suit those who want to “live” during their stay and are used to top service and relaxed elegancy.

Welcome to The Lydmar Hotel.
