What’s smoother than a baby’s cheek? Look at the surface of the Ägget Sculpture. You might be tempted to touch this whimsical piece of art. The Ägget Sculpture sits here in Fagerlidsparken. It’s one of three identical sculptures by Egon Möller-Nielsen. Did you know he was a pioneer in creating these playful sculptures? He called them “play machines,” and they were groundbreaking in Sweden during the mid-20th century. The Ägget, meaning “The Egg,” was actually his second foray into this playful art form. It came after his “Tuffsen” in 1949. The Ägget hatched in 1951. You can find its siblings in Gothenburg and another one in Tessinparken in Stockholm. But each one has its own personality expressed through unique colors and details. Möller-Nielsen also illustrated children’s books, so it’s no wonder his art speaks to the young and young at heart! He had a special way of seeing the world through a child’s eyes, and this sculpture proves it.
