Landscapes

If writing is seeing from the outside

Then what landscape is the text?

Is the music the room or is it only the room it is played in?

If the landscape is not a room, since one needs walls to create a room, 

Where does the landscape end?

We cannot see the landscape because we are always in it. 

We cannot see ourselves because we are always inside ourselves too.

So we are stuck with the words.

And the words have no end

"A landscape is the visible features of an area of land, its landforms, and how they integrate with natural or man-made features.  Combining both their physical origins and the cultural overlay of human presence, often created over millennia, landscapes reflect a living synthesis of people and place that is vital to local and national identity. The character of a landscape helps define the self-image of the people who inhabit it and a sense of place that differentiates one region from other regions. It is the dynamic backdrop to people's lives. Landscape can be as varied as farmland, a landscape park or wilderness."

Landscapes is a new project work in progress. To be continued. Photo from the process: 

I mitt verk «Var virvar» har materialet gjennomgått en transformasjon i den kunsteriske prosessen. Vi ser den brente trestokken, som går over i en pappmasjéstruktur, som så går over i et papir som så blir en tegneflate med en flyktende fugl av kullstreker, og som så ender i en makuleringsmaskin og så blir til et rede. Verket kan leses fra flere sider, man ser håp og liv eller død og dystopi, og kommenterer hvordan man ser utfordringer eller muligheter rundt seg. Dette verket ble skapt i samme tidsrom som FNs klimarapport ble lansert (høst 2018).
