We are all on a journey in life – we are many. We are used to moving among the masses – faces that only touch us – like winds that stir only a little in the clothes.
Sometimes, in the middle of the masses, a room opens – you end up in a zoon where it is completely still – no winds – because it is somehow not earthly – it is beyond the masses. The meetings you have in those zones reach the heart. The people who enter the zone – well, they are simply people you don’t want to miss – they are people you mourn deeply when they disappear.
And they will disappear – people – because that’s what we all do – we disappear.
Tomorrow I’m going out and to se if I can find pre-stretched canvases – I always stretch them myself. 176X140cm – five of them – I think – we’ll see, it could go either way, it feels inspiring anyway!
I PORTRAY the incredible, completely unique and for everyone else almost impossible power of love that a mother possesses, I portray it by the mother having a tiger cub on her left side, while she has a lamb by her right arm.
SHE loves both equally, even though one eats the other. For the rest of us the equation doesn’t add up, but for the mother it is obvious.
The face in the work is cast directly on the face of Bond Woman Maud Adams. Maud herself saw no point in her taking up space like this in my work of art. But she still showed respect to the artist, that is, me! I have chosen Maud’s face to crown motherhood. Now it is the case that Maud is childless like me, and I don’t know if it is like mine, self-chosen. I have chosen Maud because of her beauty, which is as strong on the inside as on the outside, she is both humble and very strong – she would be a super mother, she is a very good role model.
Regarding children – children are the most wonderful thing there is – why I chose not to! 1: I have been 100 percent absorbed in the artistic process. 2: If I had met a man who was worthy of my trust, I definitely think I would have helped create a child.
There are still so many of us. I am so very happy that there are friends who have had children. I believe that we all have something to give, that we are needed, in all ways and forms.

I believe that maternal love is almost the highest form of love, both in the animal kingdom and among humans.
I miss my mom so much. She was an amazing mother! Sometimes, when jsg doubted myself, she said: dear, you have your head in the clouds and your feet on the ground, you always land right! How beautiful isn’t that?!
Some people find these images grotesque – but I am only trying to describe the terrible sadness that feels like death – the fear that can sometimes completely shockingly take over both brain and heart. When you pray for life in a deep, true and real way.
There are different kinds of intensions between us humans – I portray this in a cherub, an angel of love who has become an angel of death – truly something to pray for as protection.
Important simple questions to ask when you want to analyze your current existence.
How did it happen – Why did I end up where I am right now?
Where am I right now?

Artistically & Poetically Expressed
IT IS difficult to find the beginning of the very movement that the present is based on. I closed my windows to the outside – and gradually forgot that I belonged to the outside world, without realizing my distancing. During these years I did some collaborations with dancer Carmen Olsson, large works, at her initiative. In my own work I expressed my personal existential thoughts and events, absorbed by the creative movement inside my room. Yet I was very touched by external events, it’s just that I did not see myself as participating, but only observing.I did reflect, I painted, sculpted, sketched and sewed, all to find the form that I would fill, as well as building my “craft” to be able to returnto Earth.

My thin shell was clear, I was ready – I had the shape – I returned – so happy and curious, so naively expectant! Created a profile on Instagram, and different kinds of birds started to appear that got my full attention. I simply didn’t understand other people’s intentions because I didn’t have any myself – I was incredibly newborn – didn’t even know there were dangers! How the hell it all works, how you can be an adult and not understand it, I have no answer! I guess that’s the thing that we haven’t yet solved the riddle of when it comes to the psyche – “the complex human being” – with all the strange layers of consciousness.
.
Yes, when genius speculates, there is no ceiling! Good God, so one sunny day when the birds were chirping, and the window was open, it slammed shut and a dark figure crawled on the windowpane.
And from that moment on, the light was blocked in various forms – a story for another time.

Where am I right now
Many works are to be completed, including a large work: PARADISE – in parallel with those that will be included in The Dragon project.
