Seeing in black and white, dreading the hue:
A handsome face must lead to a lovely mind,
That’s what I thought. And coming to know you
Now I know better; better things I find.
We must agree: an achromatic picture
Sometimes is more alive that one that blows
Colours and tints - a multicoloured feature -
Making you look at what the maker knows.
A fair display: a living coloured bowl
With speechless fishes hitting the glass flank.
One is a koi, its eyes are of a owl;
If it escapes, it finds another tank.
Colours are not the danger: sight is the endless flowing
Of dark and light and shadows. To us is left the roving.
(Sonnet by SiRiChandra)
The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, students, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.

Symptomedia.
Symptomedia is as artistic project I realized with @htportraitshots , @sad_one , @mortimus_aker and my friend Bannas that I can’t find here. This serie was exhibited thanks to Anders at @lokale_27 in Nørrebro earlier this year.
My artistic goal was here to incorporate narration in my images. Narration is the key to wonder, to grab the attention of the viewer and bring it deeper and deeper step by step, letting him find his own way through the representation of certain events. The theme is an illustration of an essay I wrote about the importance to overcome little fears to confront yourself to the other’s points of view in order to grow together, for the better.
To do so and to bring a lot more depth to the whole project, I took several decisions regarding the aesthetics and concepts of the série.
First is exploiting the codes of cinema: subtitles of the little screen. As you watch a movie and read this never-ending text progression, you tend to recreate a link between visual elements when the image is still. Recontextualisation. Having subtitles more than captions include the message in a scenic approach of what becomes more than an image: it’s a whole film that’s going through your eyes, and only your mind will make it go 25 frames per second.
The linguistic approach is poetic, and as my visual approach focuses a lot on giving several meanings to explore. Art is a game and mystery is the thrill of it. Research. Find.
Several elements of the exhibition (spacing, not-horizontal display, height, …) will never be accessible on digital medias – to end this presentation I would like to stress how important it is that culture takes place in real places, tangible, opened. Fuck Covid and thanks @Lokale_27 .
Peace to all.
