Elof Hellström/ Mapping the Unjust City

Elof Hellström works at the point of intersection where art, architecture and pedagogy meet, often with text and radio, and through collaborative and collective practice. The body of work of Mapping the Unjust City is a collaborative process exploring aesthetics and pedagogy in relation to ownership and capital flows in cities. By tracing the interrelationships between the abstract and the concrete, the ambition is to visualize and distribute information to promote consciousness and action.The group was formed in 2015 in Stockholm with members working in the fields of art, design, architecture and aesthetics. Since then the group has worked with mappings and cartography in the form of sound pieces, video essays, photography, text, and maps. Group members include Maryam Fanni, Elof Hellström, Åsa Johansson, Sarah Kim, Paula Urbano.
