The opening of Fotografiska on Furillen, Gotland

We have seen how the owner of the island hotellet på Furillen, Johan Hellström, have been working with some building project by this tower and today was the grand opening!

Welcome to Fotografiska, now also on Furillen starting with an exhibition with stand-up comedian and photographer Henrik Schyfferts!

Johan likes to talk so naturally he gave a nice speach when he declared the new tower opened. Well done Johan!

Then we got to listen to lovely Frida Sundemo who sang so beautiful that the tower started to shimmer and sparkle!

We have never heard about her before, but was fortunate to have the opportunity to speak to her before the opening. She was a really nice girl! Let’s hope her career develops well in Japan and that we’ll get to see more of her in Sweden.

Henrik Schyffert talked about his pictures with the theme ”Time on your own”. He did some stand-up too – of course! He’s very funny, we laughed a lot.

People mingled around and ate food and strawberries.

This woman is actually walking around with a living chicken on her arm! The mother hen had got killed by a fox and since the woman started to care for this chicken, it refuses to leave her. So she carries him/her with her all the time.

Lonely cabin by the tower.

Shelter for homeless birds?
