Farewell 2010

This year, I made choices. I was bold and even a little bit pushy. I made mistakes as well. Even some major ones but I took my chances, I went for it anyway. I learned a lot of things. Maybe going through all this uncertainty, fear and pain is where the points stands. It's what keeps us moving forward. What pushes us. All this messes you up as well but maybe we have to be a little messed up before we can step up. I send my farewell to this struggling year and hope for the upcoming one to be a little bit sweeter.

Who is sleeping on my pillow

My most treasured belonging these days is this book, offered by my sweet dutchy couple.
It's the catalogue from the combine exhibition of Mamma Andersson and Jockum Nordström. I've known the work of Nordström for a while now and was always fascinated by his fantastic world, his very liberated way of drawing, his mysterious scenes and landscapes. Here I discovered the work of his wife Mamma Andersson and it touched me deeply as well. Their intimacy and bound as artists impregnate the book and make it even more fascinating.
