Kristallen

The new glass building housing Lunds Kommun services is the touchstone for the development of a new area, right in Lund's downtown. Is it a metaphore for the Kommun's transparency? Anyway, I was there a few months ago for a meeting to start a project that was just now finished. More to come.

Ales Stenar

Early in the summer, I got back to Ales Stenar for the Midsommar's sunset. There are always all sorts of people going there at that day. This time, on the way back we met a group of indian backpackers and a swedish girl getting ready to spend the night there. The sky should be a wonderful sight there!

Marie Flood

So it goes when sketching becomes a tool for meeting people and networking. I had met Marie Flood some months ago, during the exhibition at Martas Café. She was there as part of a fanzine market and we talked about meeting afterwards to sketch together. And we did, during a sunny afternoon – way too sunny for this latitude. We sought the relief of shade and the comfort of caffeine and talked for hours about art, architecture, people and ourselves before we even laid pen on paper.

When we finally did, I was happy that I chose an A4 sketchbook, so that the background would fit together with her portrait. I also had the chance to go through Marie’s impressive sketchbook. It was inspiring for me not only because of the quality of her sketches, but also because she sketches mainly from her imagination – something that doesn't come naturally to me any more after years of sketching what I see. She says imagination is like a muscle and needs practice. I guess she’s right. It’s like every other skill.
