North Sea | Sweden


I am a spot in a sea of waves

Each spot united in a movement

Which embodies

concretizes

Gives us a place in relation to each other

Makes us one

Not because we are alike

but because we are shaped together

Unique

I lie still, my body next to the sea, in the place where the sun landed and the ground undulated. On the sand shaped by the eternal swells of the Kattegat. Right next to the world that is the sea, the place where life was born – I still felt it. Life, which changes with time, is shaped by its surroundings, our relationships in time and with each other. My body meets the waves of Kattegat, makes them take new directions, form new formations, meet new spots. The landscape that is me is filled with places where the sun can land and where the waves can make their way, where we are shaped by each other
