In 2023 artist Fadlabi created colorful artworks from the wind shelters along Luleå Ice Track. This winter another artist will create new works for the track.

As a part of Luleåbiennalen 2024, artist Fadlabi was invited to create a new artwork for the Ice Track stretching between the southern and northern harbor in Luleå. The result was “Sadaqah Jariyah – On Behalf of Amund Raknerud”, colorful re-imaginings of several wind shelters along the track, and a regional twist on a common Sudanese tradition.

This winter, as part of Luleåbiennalen 2027, another artist will take on the ice track as their exhibition space. During the later part of 2025, they will work on site in Norrbotten and the results will be installed in conjunction with the inauguration of the Ice Track this winter.

More information to be released shortly.
