Sleep from the "Essences & Particularities" series.
Computer Print. Edition of 19. 10 x 20 cm.
These drawings are an exploration of the diversity, the ´differend´so to speak, but unlike Lyotard who ended up trusting no stories, I found that in focussing on the particular (what was exceptional for me), I discovered more stories. It seemed that by listening more and not worrying about whether something made sense or not,
I discovered new
words / worlds.
Window Conversation, 2012

Laser print on transparency. Edition of 19. 50 x 10 cm.
See: Conversations, shown on mirrors
in four different locations between 2005 and 2008.
In 2005 I started a variation of this series presenting these a bit like comic-like 'conversations' in strips on mirrors or glass so that the changing illumination (sunlight or lighting in the room) contributed to the visibility of the lines and forms. I printed these on a laser printer in black and white to refer to the simplicity of early comic books, printed text and to emphasize the association that these are 'read' images.
