About the Work

With her family of works Messengers in Glass, Camilla Moberg was inspired by the formation of natural stone, as well as the colors of insects and birds. Placing stones in formation is a very old means of communication. Stones were used to greet, warn, advise, guide — to deliver an important message. Moberg’s sculptures do carry a special and important message: they comment on climate change, the importance of nature and concerns about the loss of its diversity. Their message advises us not to forget the small ones, the ones we don’t see but who often are the most important.

"In the “Green Treasure” sculptures, there are reminiscences of five insects. One of them is an unclassified Darkling Beetle in purple and turquoise colors. A majority of all insects are still unclassified, and my inspiration from one of these insects can be admired, not at the end of the rainbow, but in the “Green Treasure” sculptures." - Camilla Moberg
