Complementary Goods



1. Piet Hein, Ursa Major Candelabra
2. Bengt Rosenström, Rammsjö Sideboard

The interior of my apartment solely constitutes itself of piled magazines. A hybrid between gallery and book shop, hence the particular need of furniture. An almost endless process of research and consideration.

Kopienkritik




Installation Oliver Laric

Visual analogies, twins, undeniable similarities. As a recurrent subject of this site, the interest for the seemingly identical is unbrokenly intense. Consequently, I adore this man and his theory on versions.

Gänseblümchen



Top Alexis Mabille Spring/Summer 2011
Bottom John Singer Sargent

Men wearing laurels. Or daisies. The antique reference recalls the decadence of Caligula. But I mostly adore the vulnerability and softness evoked by endorsing a man with a floral wreath.

Artwork Sleeping Satyr, Theseus Slaying Minotaur

Recently, I feel the deep desire to see an exhibition with antique statues, preferably male ones. It seems I am into exploring ancient cultures and examining body and identity.
