We Love Apples

Åsa Jungnelius is an artist known for her bold feminist perspective. Inspired by the late Ulrica Hydman Vallien—renowned for her expressive depictions of the female form—Åsa created We Love Apples as a tribute to her legacy. The collection also honors Sven X:et Erixon, a fellow admirer of vibrant color, whose influence can be seen in Åsa’s vivid palette and playful forms.

“I want the apples to appear insatiable - delicious and difficult to resist. Much like the biblical apple from the Garden of Eden which Eve took a bite from, despite that it was forbidden”
– Åsa Jungnelius

Åsa Jungnelius (born in 1975) lives and works in Stockholm and in Månsamåla, Sweden, where she previously shared the glassworks with the celebrated Kosta Boda artist Ulrica Hydman Vallien, her mentor and a great source of inspiration. In 2004, the artist had her first major success with her degree project created for one of Sweden's most prestigious art and design universities, called “I like your hairstyle!” In the installation, she created a surrealist shopping scene with objects that spark desire.
