yellowbox Yellowbox is a non-profitmaking artists initiative a meeting place and center for the arts. This former schoolhouse is based in the village of Sättra in Öland and was built in 1920 and adapted as a residential project space in 2006 by Helle Kvamme and John Leo Carter. The village of Sättra itself sprang from the opportunities brought about from a thriving economy in the 1920s which included the first motor driven mill on Öland a telegraph station a cremery a railway junction and a schoolhouse all of which became decomissioned in the early 60s and was gradually replaced/recomissioned by an influx of artists. Yellowbox has developed an outdoor studio, Utmarken. Where artists, architekts, researchers, planners and nature science can meet.  Yellowbox facilitates artists in the development of new work providing an opportunity for new collaborations and connecting local and visiting artists and developing a informal networks.
