I neglected this project a bit, this has several reasons, one of them simply financial, I needed to work on other things in order to have money to live \u2026\u00a0 Another reason is that I find it difficult to find a \u201cway in\u201d. I have pictures and some factual explanations by my Dad, the text my Grandmother wrote \u2026. There are several books on the consequences of traumatic experiences of war and displacement that I still wish to read, but nothing has, until now, really captured my attention in a way that makes me want to dig deeper into a certain direction. I will keep on posting pictures and writing what comes to my mind, in the hope that some theme will emerge, some new aspect of the story crystallise \u2026.<\/p>\n
There are some many interesting aspects of the this story, factual, emotional, psychological, its relation to actual events, traumatised children, generations and nations \u2026 But I am an artist and I need to find an artistic way to deal with this, to see what it has, eventually, also to do with me, with wo I am, with my artistic practice.<\/p>\n
Recently I have found myself tired of making the same kind of pictures over and over again and I felt a vague urge to \u201cenlarge\u201d my practice, to make it less personal in a way, to make it more about society then about a personal vision or aesthetic. Is that even possible? Or is it something else, that I am looking for? Maybe to involve more people in what in make? To open my work in a way. I wonder if this project, which is very personal, and also isn\u00b4t, will evolve in such a direction?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
