Today, educator Vera Nyblom guides us through the paintings that have moved her in the When We See Us exhibition at Liljevalchs. Here, she highlights the beauty of everyday life and intergenerational knowledge on the continent.

In this series of reels, Southnord has invited some of the role models in our Afro-Swedish community to share their thoughts about the works that resonate with them the most in the When We See Us exhibition at Liljevalchs. These reels will be published throughout the course of the show until it closes on 30 August 2026.
