Susanna Arwin created Väskberget i Hammarbyhöjden to serve as a purposeful catalyst for civil courage. The artist's purpose with the artwork is to urge courage and civil courage.
This work officially opened on 28 April 2017 through the presence of Stefan and Marianne Ränk along with Roger Mogert. It occupies a precise location where the forest of Nackareservatet begins.
We can look back to the 1930s to understand the growth of Björkhagen, where blocks received names like Bordslampan and Kristallkronan. The specific building known as Taklampan 1 stands as a zero-energy property that produces the same amount of energy on an annual basis as it consumes for heating, water, and property electricity.
People visiting today can locate the sculpture near the forest boundary to explore its meaning. The property was awarded "Framtidens fastighet 2017" for being a zero-energy building, making it one of ten new building projects in Stockholm nominated for Årets Stockholmsbyggnad 2018.
