Fågelmannen by Liss Eriksson, Terracotta sculpture in Arvika, Sweden
Fågelmannen is a terracotta sculpture in Arvika showing a human figure combined with bird elements. The work stands out for how it merges the human form with natural imagery in a compact composition.
The sculpture was created after Eriksson studied in Paris with notable artists in the 1940s. This period in France shaped his artistic approach and became central to his later work.
The figure shows how human and natural forms blend together, which is a theme the artist returned to repeatedly. Visitors can see the influence of French art traditions that shaped Eriksson's approach to sculpture.
The sculpture is in the public square of Arvika and is freely accessible to anyone visiting. It is easy to find while exploring the town center and requires no special arrangements to view.
This work is one of a limited series of 200 pieces, each individually numbered by the artist. This deliberate limitation shows how Eriksson chose quality over mass production.
