Into the woods

Naturen är en ständig inspirationskälla och utgångspunkt i mitt arbete med smycken. Naturen är perfekt, oändlig, vacker och beständig. Den ger trygghet, vila och obegränsat med formidéer.
Projektet Into the woods startade i en gestaltning av vemod. Vemodet är en längtande, melankolisk men också skön känsla.
Jag ser skuggor av grenar röra sig på den vita väggen och fylls av vemod. Vanligtvis tänker jag
knappt på de nakna träden utanför, men när jag ser skuggorna stannar jag till en stund. Jag tänkerpå minnen, stunder som aldrig kommer åter och på framtiden. Vemodet är en reflektion över frånvaro och sorg men innehåller också gott mod och hopp. Jag tar ett djupt andetag och går vidare.
Under arbetets gång har min fascination över grenars former väckts. Jag samlar grenar och elektroformar dem till en kopparklädd yta som sedan patineras med oxid eller emaljlack. Vissa grenar sätts ihop i kluster medan andra är solitära. Någon får en knopp av porslin eller trä och en annan kokonger fyllda med krossad ädelsten eller glas.
Dessa grenar är som frusna ögonblick ur naturen. Som smycken får de en plats på kroppen och
ett nytt liv.

Sunday - Alper at Hagabion...

At Sunday me and my friend Viola was at Hagabion and saw a film that we have been longing for to see; Alps. It was the last day they show it and now we have seen it, perfect!
We have dinner afterwards and it was a perfect ending of the weekend.
Last week was very very annoying and irritated in many ways, so I’m happy for the good end.

Alps by Yorgos Lanthimos born 1973 a Greek filmaker and theatre director.


His third feature film the 2009 film Dogtooth won the Prix Un Certain Regard at the 2009 Cannes Film Festivaland has been nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 83rd Academy Awards.

His fourth feature film Alps (film) (2011) won the Osella Award for Best Screenplay (Yorgos Lanthimos and Efthimis Filippou) at the 68th Venice International Film Festival.

spring is in the air...

Sometimes my life is “more” better; this weekend has been a great weekend with lovely weather, nice and absolutely good friends, nice fika (coffee break) etc…

Saturday, I and my friend Therese took a walk down to Klippan and to Ångbåts café, the steamboat. I love the place!!! I really really love the steamboat man! He is so cute and he do his best to serve us.

Therese and I had our cameras with us, so the day was in the photo session way.
Lovely light, the spring sun was warm and very very clear.

Here you can see some of the result and inspiration pics from a beautiful and very very nice Saturday.

An amazing yard in Majorna that we found on our way. I love when people are creative, could it be better?! Lucky the once that live there!
It was so many interesting pieces there, so many lovely angles and the sun did it even better, it was absolutely spring in the air!
