Ulrica Hydman Vallien : a paradise attack

Style sometimes turns into a trademark. For half a century now Ulrica Hydman Vallien has been supplying us with her images and symbols. Serpents have wriggled over paintings, glass and textile fabrics. Eyes have gazed out from dishes and vases. Fantasy beasts and human figures have been united in a longing for Paradise. Uniquely among Swedish designers and artists, Ulrica Hydman Vallien has prospered by her supremely personal style. Her commercial success is enormous. In the book Ulrica Hydman Vallien A Paradise Attack we step into this idiosyncratic pictorial world through the medium of the ceramics, the painting and the glass.
