Lisa

An old friend from art school, Lisa Stålspets, is showing paintings and videos at Soya konstrum.
Lisa works with scenography and storytelling, which develops and transforms (into, for example, paintings) during the process..

Keiko

I met Keiko Kurita, who is a photographer, a while back in London but she is now based in Tokyo. Here is some new work of hers, called Tree/Sleep. I really like the contrasts, pale grey and blue against greens and browns..

London

Made a quick visit to London, which was showing off with extreme warm and sunny weather. The great gallery The Riflemaker on Beak street in Soho had two great exhibitions on: Juan Fontanive and Liliane Lijn. Juan Fontanive showing Tin Tan, which is amazing "dancing" maschines, beautiful made and very poetic. Liane Lijn project Stardust includes film projections on Aerogel, a NASA invention. Magical. My little mobile phone could not make any of these exhibitions justice so if you can pay a visit! (you can also view a better movie of Tin Tan here..)

Oh, the background music is St.Vincent..
