The walls around the narrow bed are covered with various nude studies, including works by Léo Holmgren and Felix Bryk. There is also a portrait of the Ukrainian-Jewish writer Jasha Golowanjuk, whose early books depicted outsiders and queer life.
Strömgatan 2 mirrors this queer space in the form of a wooden construction in 1:1 scale, based on the layout and coordinates of the bedroom. Imprints of bodies on glass and a thin curtain coloured by the sunset from the work Sunset/Sunrise (The Fairy Garden) on the third floor of the art gallery form a porous border between the private and the public. On one of the walls of Strömgatan 2 hangs a painting of a bouquet filled with lilies, narcissuses, irises and anemones. In the exhibition Sunset/Sunrise, it comes to life and spreads its flowers through the halls of the art gallery.
