Solna Strand subway station

The contrast between the heavenly cubes – jutting out from the ceiling and platform at Solna Strand – and the dark cave, is characteristic of Takashi Naraha’s art. The Japanese artist often uses a yin-and-yang-theme in his work, explains art guide Marie Andersson.

"It’s the foundation of his pieces, there’s often a balance between light and darkness. And in the way that the platform’s cubes mirror the open sky above ground, the black cube just outside the station entrance relates to the dark cave below ground".
