Gunilla Bandolin\u2019s artwork The Pyramid<\/em> builds on a tradition from the 1960s of land art, in which artists build artworks, often on a large scale, into the landscape using material from the site. Bandolin arrived at the pyramid form through experimentation, as she was playing with multiple variations in different materials. One ephemeral version was a pyramid of nylon thread stretched between trees. The permanent artwork embraces and frames the park, catching the eye as we walk through it and let ourselves actively discover the form using our own bodies. In The Pyramid<\/em>, the distance between stone walls is just wide enough to enable us to walk through it. Bandolin\u2019s artworks often play with the boundary between art and architecture. Her public artworks can be found in multiple locations in Sweden, and they encourage visitors to sit on, climb around, walk on, or pass through them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
