Pure invitation

And maybe you know the feeling of just being invited to be part of a great play about real life. And when you enter the stage, you realize that you are both the main actor, the extra and the set.

Ganthi’s passion for red

Ganthi, the fisher boat in the Donsö harbour, had that glowing passion for its red hull. And in midst of the nordic blue skies and sea, it reminded me of the “Sleeping beauty” tale. Should I have woken it with a kiss?

A hymn for the eyes

There are those moments and encounters with the world, when the visual world turns into music, a hymn, a sonata in G minor, an epic choral with bells and fanfares… or just a self-forgotten hummed love song.

And sometimes it feels like there is a process of synesthesia between such a tune and the impressionistic work of Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Cézanne…

I truly love to sit or stand still in those moments and dive deeply into such scenes. Do you?

There’s a light…

And now for something completely different… a Me(a)taphor.
In memoriam Janet, Brad, Frank N. Furter, Riff Raff, Magenta and many more.

In the velvet darkness

Of the blackest night

Burning bright,
there’s a guiding star

No matter what, or who you are

There’s a light
(Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light
(Burning in the fireplace)
There’s a light, light

In the darkness of everybody’s life

The darkness must go
Down the river of night’s dreaming
Flow morpheus slow
Let the sun and light come streaming
Into my life, into my life

There’s a light
(Over at the Frankenstein Place)
There’s a light
(Burning in the fireplace)
There’s a light, light
In the darkness of everybody’s life

Like an open heart

Come in… feel at home.
