art and coffee fits very well together, I think...
Julie Nord and Bera Nordal, the opening speech...
I was invited to go by bus for free together with a friend to the Nordic aquarelle museum to Julie Nord opening in Skärhamn, Tjörn.
I went with my neighbour Charlotte on a bus trip for the day, it was a great trip with very interesting art, for me it got a lot of Demark this week, first a trip to Louisiana, Denmark and now a artist from Denmark in Sweden…
It was a really cold day and I have never earlier before in my life seeing this kind of ice layer in the nature and the roads was totally covered by ice… It was beautiful and cold, in some way I think the ice fits well together with Julie Nords paintings and drawings, some objects outdoors turn into monsters with the ice drops hanging from them, as sharp teeth’s… the exhibition was like looking into a kaleidoscope, you saw a lot of things and you think you saw the whole, but in some how you don’t saw everything… a strange feeling of being in some other dimension.
Nordic Watercolour Museum, Sweden Julie Nord's largest solo exhibition so far. The word xenoglossy describes an occult language phenomenon. Here people in a trance-like condition are speaking a language they do not know. You are invited to a peculiar home where nothing is as normal...
The exhibition including new and previous works has also been shown at ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum, DK, August - November 2010.

Today I took a walk down town, I meet a friend and we had a nice fika time at Two Little Birds café and Arts and Crafts, a nice and homelike place with a lot of ecologic stuff, nice girls who runs the place and a lot of nice arts and craft to look at and also for sale, a very successful concept on the right street in Gothenburg, I think.
