Every year a sculptor from a different european country is awarded the post of Stone Stipendiat at KKV-B Bohuslans Sculpture collective near Goteborg in Sweden. This fellowship is supported by local industries and the regional authorities of sotenas and stromstad. In 1998 Michael Dan Archer was invited to represent Britain and he spent two months working in the famous granite quarries of the area and at KKV-B. Archer worked by hand and with massive industrual equipment to make a huge three element work comprising a pierced wall and fallen doorway in a 12 ton slab of tossene granite and a crucible in hallinden granite.

Moving the slab taxed the quarry equipment to its limits and needed two giant forklifts dancing precariously to move the work, titled interface into its temporary position deep within the spectacular walls of avya quarry. In 1999 Archer returned to permanently site 'Interface' by the sea in vajern where it forms the focus of a new plaza.
