Jag ärvde en mörk skog dit jag sällan går explores a location that holds a family, wood-industrial history and a strike conflict that happened in Ådalen in 1931. The work consists of contemporary photography and archival material from family and The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences. Through the interaction with archival material and in the encounter between different sources, a weave of place, memory and history is created to understand a personal and collective heritage.
