      Art & music often connects. Music is sometimes an inspiration to art and creativity awakes when you listen to music when you paint.

      Oil, acrylic & oil chalk on canvas "By the rivers of Babylon". 100x90 cm. (39,37 x 35,43 Inches).

      MELANCHOLY

      I felt a deep sence of melancholy during the autumn, but it was an inspirational kind of melancholy (I know it sounds contradictory), that inspired me paint this painting. During the prosess I started to sing an old song that was a disco hit by Boney M when I was younger. When I was seaching for the words in the song I knew it was about Zion, the melancholy I felt was becouse I feel ”home-sick” missing Zion. Sweden is incredibly beautiful, and I am grateful to live here. but Zion is my true home.

      By the rivers of babylon...

      So I painted or... more like "pouring out" the feeling when I listen to the music:

      "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down

      Yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion

      By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down

      Yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion

      There the wicked

      Carried us away in captivity

      Required from us a song

      Now how shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?

      There the wicked

      Carried us away in captivity

      Requiring of us a song

      Now how shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?

      Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

      Let the words of our mouth and the meditation of our heart

      Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight


      Let the words of our mouth and the meditation of our hearts

      Be acceptable in thy sight here tonight

      By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down

      Yeah, we wept, when we remembered Zion


      By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat…"

      Golden Harps hanging in the tree... Leavs like tears floating on the river... Drifting and longing to return... To sing songs of joy

      HISTORY

      Rivers of Babylon is originally a rocksteady song (written by Brent Dowe and Trevor McNaughton with the Jamaican vocalist trio The Melodians). The song based on Psalm 137 and Psalm 19:14, see below.

      Psalm 137:1-6

      By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down and wept when we remembered Zion. We hung our harps upon the poplars. For there our captors made us sing and our tormentors made us entertain, saying, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion.” How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a foreign land?

      If I forget you, O Jerusalem,

      let my right hand forget its skill.

      If I do not remember you,

      let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth,

      if I do not have Jerusalem

      as my highest joy.


      Psalm 19:14

      Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my strenght, and my redeemer.

      a successful year for nina björk art

      "This year has been been about changes and been very challenging. The world has been hit by a terrible pandemic and many have lost their lives. At the same time, I have reached personal goals with my art. Which feels very contradictory, to suddenly be hit off the sad events in the world and cry for those who are struggling, and in the other moment rejoice over my own success in art field.

      But I hope my joy can spread a light, a hope to everyone who reads this. Skills take time to develop, even if you got talent. Through faith and hard work comes success. You can never know or plan when this success will happen and how it looks like and where it leads, but I guess it is so for everyone who follows their dreams.

      Let the impossible become possible in 2021, open pathways and opportunities for people to get well for those hwo are sick and for bussinesses to bloom and let the new year make it possible for dreams to come true... because the world needs dreamers who walks new pathways"

      /Nina Björk

      Behind the clouds there is light

      Despite all... this year Nina Björks Art has achieved success. Her art have been exhibit & sold to art collectors from Sweden and abroad.

      words with wings, oil on canvas

      Yad Labanim gallery Israel

      During february - marsh, the Yad LaBanim Gallery in Israel presented Nina Björk in the exhibit: "How I see the Land". It was a invitation exhibition and also the first time an artist outside Israel was invited to exhibit in the Yad LaBanim Gallery. A great honor and achievement.

      nominated for kiruna scholarship

      Nina Björk was one of five artist for the Kiruna scholarship award. Tree paintings was represented in a exhibition where the public also had the opportunity to write an assessment.

      Here is some of the reflextions from the exhibition:

      Eyes that speak.... The depth of the gaze.... Very skilfully made.... Looks like a photograph....Blue alert eyes...... The child looks so open and happy...... Timeless, beautiful and thought-provoking. What is she thinking about..? It looks like she is hiding because maybe she is depressed, the painting feels…, Rests in security... It looks so real and it's nice.... It fits in where we live here in the north and I like animals.... it's beautiful...... It reflects Kiruna and gives the veiwer a kind and calm feeling.... Colorful and moving.... I think this painting should win because I think the picture with the reindeer fits very well with the city Kiruna, and that it is beautiful..... Nice painting, the artist can paint!..... Smokescreen was very nice..... Especially like Smokescreen, I would like it on my wall..... Beautiful reindeer's, the painting fits in everywhere.... I chose this particular work of art because I like the symbolist brushstrokes and the color choices and I stuck to it because of the spooky reindeer that gave me the feeling that everyone dies... Reindeer's gathered and waiting to get away....

      One of the privilige was a free use of a studio appartment in Kiruna. During september Nina Björk visited Kiruna and got inspirations from the beautiful nature. She will visit Kiruna more in the future.

      Swedish Art association Award

      måndag 2 november 2020, 15:49

      The Stockholms Art fair was a jury judged art fair in Lavalhallen in Nacka during the end of october 2020.

      It was a great and professional arrangement, and it was a joy and honor to be a part off it. We where 80 artists that was selected by the jury to participate in the Stockholm Art fair 2020 that exhibit paintings and sculptures in the 1000 m², Lavalhallen in Nacka, Stockholm, Sweden.

      Because of the time of pandemic the 80 artists could not be inside the art fair at the same time, and there was no vernissage, but our art could participate, and that is most important to be able to exhibit our work.


      Scholarship winner


      On the last day of the art fair, a prize was awarded to artists who received recognition.

      I was incredibly surprised and honored when I received a scholarship from the Swedish Artists' Association.



      The art fair had restrictions that not more then 50 people could be inside at the same time. The hall, was very huge and had lots of space for visitors.

      Visitors & friends

      I missed the possiblilty to talk with other artists during the art fair, because of the restrictions, not many were there when I visited, but I had the possibility to come and visit the exhibit when my friends were there and to walk around together with them and see all paintings & sculptures by the participated artists. They thought the exhibit had a very high quality.


      Thank you all friends, visitors, art associations & art collectors that visited the art fair!
