my contribution to rock the socks...

Just a uniform grayness..


Eclipse is here, but here in Majorna, Gothenburg, Sweden is rain in the air and gray, no sun in sight.
I took a walk around my neighborhood to look where the sun was, behind rain clouds!

Now it's a lot of years until the next time it will be a "visible" eclipse over Sweden.

Eclipse is here, but here in Majorna, Gothenburg, Sweden is rain in the air and gray, no sun in sight but a strange grayness, so maybe  the sun are covered by the moon right now ?!

Spring Equinox and its amazing spring flowers!

 Coltsfoot is my favorite spring flower, so wonderfully simple, so yellow, like small suns that light up in the brown and wet to be to begin to sprout, change color and make the summer.


 Anemone hepatica syn. Hepatica nobilis, 
Anemone nemorosa

 Anemone hepatica syn. Hepatica nobilis
Is protected in some parts of Sweden, but not in my childhood districts, Alnö.



Spring Equinox and Eclipse the same date...

20/3 is the eclipse of Sweden and Europe, hoping that I can see it ... although you should NOT look directly at the sun obscured, apparently very bright light.

rocka sockorna! - Hang on, was a part you too!


Different is good and tomorrow you can be involved and manifest it by wearing odd socks.

20/3 is the world down syndrome day.

in my world, I saw a small animal or two...



 They are so cute and soft where they sit alone on a branch...

at Röhsska right now...



A stunning exhibition, so nice, so thoughtful, a little unpleasant but yet so beautiful ...

I like human sculptures interact with animals, it makes it a fairy tale, something more, something attractive but also something warm (as I experience it anyway, even though you really feel that the animals are dead ... the sculptures become like more "living "such dead animals).

Eden, See You on the Other Side by artist Christian-Pontus Andersson
17 / 3 - 31 / 5 2015.

If you are in Gothenburg, see and experience these sculptures!














 Coffee is never wrong, here with a good friend before the exhibition and the opening. 
Röhsskas café's good coffee can be recommended!


 The exhibition opened by curator at the Gothenburg Museum of Art Johan Sjöström.

 The artist Christian-Pontus Andersson and Tom Hedqvist Museum Director.


I had planned to outsource some website or other address to Christian-Pontus Andersson, but there was nothing I found, unfortunately ...
BUT google on Christian -Pontus Andersson's name and you will receive up many good pictures, interviews, etc.

Today I got some pictures from a colleague who was off to Munich, she was kind and take some photos from the exhibit that I am part of at Schmuck.

I have to think about... Kill your darlings...

This section was included in a piece of jewelry which unfortunately did not keep for use underwater, which was the purpose of the piece. it was part of the project UNDA UASTUS. Now I have to think again, make it more durable or use in any other jewelry.
Another thing to think out and on.

Really a shame that it did not work out as I had imagined, but it is one of the intressanat things about the project UNDA UASTUS, you never know in advance how things / materials will work together mended body and movement under water, this part was too large and strong relative to that which it was attached. It was broken simply by movement and water resistance.
Too bad, because I was very happy with the design of the whole.

I'm not there yet...


Another angle of fruit nets that I have not received any order of yet, I have a plan ... but it is far from clear. I want to show that sometimes the process is not so obvious, it is the form obstacles and emotional musings ...
