About Kitra
Originally from the grim concrete landscape of communist Romania, and nowadays living and working in Berlin, where the artist known as Kitra draws his inspiration from the urban landscape, industrial design, and the digital world, using a mathematical approach to create his geometric abstract-minimalist compositions.

Destination: Näsets Marcusgård, Sweden
Back in 1910, a man called Marcus Eriksson founded Näsets Marcusgård in rural Sweden, about a four hours drive north of Stockholm. It started small, but soon the farm became the central meeting place in the area. Nowadays Näsets Marcusgård is run by two Dutch entrepreneurs, Mireille and Willem, who were immediately inspired to build a place that combines history and nature with modern comfort and quality.

A little word from Kitra…

As the trip got closer, I started feeling a bit nervous. I was going to spend four days with people I’d never met before, and I wasn’t sure how that would go. But once I got there, everything felt really easy and relaxed. The place was even more beautiful than in the photos, and Mireille and Willem, the hosts of Nasets Marcusgard, were such kind and welcoming people. Everything what I felt during our days at the Winter Camp felt like a warm hug.

The hikes deep into the forest made a lasting impression on me. Being able to walk through this unique landscape with its tall trees, and surrounded by lakes, the silence interrupted only by the crunch of snow under our footsteps, was unforgettable. One of the nights I slept in the treehouse. I had never slept in the forest before, especially not at -15 degrees. I was too excited to sleep, watching the moonlight, as it happened to be a full moon that night. Both the setting and the experience awakened something very primal in me. On our last day we built a sweat lodge together, which was a very special experience—from constructing it, to sitting inside around the hot rocks in our self-built sauna, to playing like kids in the snow outside afterwards.

What stayed with me after the trip were the colors: a lot of white, green, and blue. The landscape was almost entirely white because of the snow, and during our hikes around Nasets Marcusgard, the blue of the sky and green of the trees really stayed with me.'
