Rebecca Lindsmyr's “weak spot" series, created for the 2024 exhibition "THE WEAK SPOT" at Korsør's old glass factory (DK), explores reflections, light, and fragility through material, economic, and linguistic aspects. Inspired by photographs of Korsør's former glass industry, where workers are depicted holding large sheets of glass bare-handed, Lindsmyr draws a parallel to the painter's canvas that mirrors the movement of the hand.

Her series incorporates handwritten notes from the glass factory archives, often enlarged and inverted using stencils. This layering creates a vibrating effect, investigating the oscillating nature of gestures that move in and out of legibility. By superimposing borrowed handwriting with her expressive gestures, Lindsmyr reflects multiple layers of time, merging the artist's presence with the industrial past.

In Lindsmyr's works, tensions between fragilities disappear and resurface. Each painting includes a fragility symbol—a stylized graphic of cracked glass used to emphasize careful handling, reminiscent of packaging symbols during transport. This motif intertwines with the painting's position in the logistics of economic circulation. The suggested market value of a painting is connected with the artist's almost ghostlike presence in the work, subtly echoed by the symbol.

The cracked glass also symbolizes a reflective surface that, together with its 180 cm height, creates a sense of physicality within the painting. The layering of the symbol, handwriting, and the artist's expressive gestures allows for readings of the painting's dual role as both a vicarious subject and a market commodity. Fragilities in the works appear and disappear, as if the frailty of history is suddenly before our eyes, only to vanish again. Mirrors conjure fleeting images of what lies behind us, allowing us to momentarily perceive our blind spots. With "weak spot," Lindsmyr establishes mirror images that reflect both history and the space they inhabit.
