Malling – Malmö

Posted in Art, Friends, Inspiration at 2:58 pm by hanne

A quick Artrovert trip to Copenhagen and Malmö this weekend totally cheered me up!

Great company – Gulla and Lis – and a lot of new impressions: DESIGN S at Malmö FORM/DESIGN CENTER, LEE MILLERS WAR at Fotografins Rum

THE REAL THING at Malmöhus/ Malmö Konstmuseum and finally NORDISKE STEMNINGER at Arken. And above, beyond – and in between: a lot of walking, talking, drinking coffee, discussing art and life.

I´m totally full.

Unsettled

The weather here around is somewhat unsettled these days – and so am I. Everything can appear great in the morning – half an hour later the sky is dark and it pours down. And visa versa of course…

I don’t have sufficient time for art work at the moment. It feels like my days are cut into little pieces. It always stirs me up! On the other hand, I realize it´s necessary to give time also to a lot of back stage activities such as organizing papers, art projects, nexts steps of all kinds, almost invisible but necessary little actions that makes your ideas become future realities!

This image illustrates a quiet and joyful moment at my outdoor studio table – the bliss of being absorbed in creativeness. I want more days like this!

E – A – H

Soft, spatial, stitched letters – made just for fun.

E – A – H are the initial letters of our names but with more time I’d love to create the entire alphabet!

I had to try this out for my crafting class – to see how it works and I´m pretty happy with the outcome! I think a single letter or a few words will do great as gifts for special occasions: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CONGRATULATIONS, SEE YOU, YES, whatever…

Beginning of the end

Unmistakakeble little signs and omens whisper to me the summer holiday slowly but steadily draws to a close… (the sound of a deep sigh… )
