The works of crafter Berit Berin can usually be experienced at Berits halmmuseum (Berit's Straw Museum) in a room at Sörbyn Sundsnäs homestead museum. During the Luleå Biennial 2022, Berin's works are shown at Havremagasinet.
Berit's Straw Museum, where visitors can experience works by the craftswoman Berit Berin, is located in one of the rooms of the homestead museum. The Luleå Biennial is showing a small selection of craft objects from this collection, which includes traditional decorative and sculptural objects. At Havremagasinet, a selection of hanging and smaller straw sculptures depicting weaving and flax spinning are on display.
Berit Berin was born and raised in Sörbyn, and lives in Boden today. She learned straw crafts at Halmens hus in Bengtsfors, and has since worked as a straw crafter in both Hälsingland and Norrbotten.
