FiftH force of nature  2023

The Fifth Force of Nature 
There are indications showing that there is a fifth force of nature, in addition to gravity, electromagnetism and strong and weak nuclear forces. However, there considerable uncertainty as to what exactly this force is, and, which is even more uncertain, what it actually does, and where. 
 
This exhibition, a cooperation between three artists with personal entries into thisis exploratory journey into that field of ambiguity. Through different materials, we will take a closer look at what’s not visible, at that which can only be observed indirectly, at objects that may exist as assumptions only, and at things whose whole existence spans virtually no time at all. If indeed they exist.

 mountain worn down into sand
water, wind had grounded it
time space gave their colours to the sand with light and soil filled the world with colour

The text tells of my entry into the work with sand. Hopefully transmitting a sense beyond time and space and all that is forgotten among us humans.  Samtidigt är varje korn ett minne och bevis på liv som funnitEvery grain is a memory and a proof of life lived The earthe is constantly perforated by subatomic particles from billions of years back. Though sand may tell of life in the desert, or rather death, it still is unhessantly on its way.. Sand brings minerals to the seas. Sand hides and reveals. The images shown are afterimages of rememberence. Reminding of what is forgotten.

Silent Vulcanos with Star
 
You are yourself stardust as you live from what the soil gives you.
Your way to live this life is to constantly balancing all this in your life, in your soul.
Soil gives you life, flowers as well. Vulcanos have their own inner lives, you know this. And you never know when they burst into inner motion…
The now silent vulcanos, silenced by the eternal dances of eons, carry their secret down with their deepest roots. Resting long enough, sleeping away all our ages, we wait, we listen, until bursting all the living up from their hidings, up from underearth; what we cannot grasp, encompass.
They will glisten, beam and spreading themselves down the long slopes of the vulcanos, down sharp ravines, angular bumbles, gravel spreading over all the black, stiffening dormant in nightely dreams. Soon their brims are burning with fragrance life giving vegetation. Life.
Out of the black eonically old---- Once again…
