At one point in life or another, and for a myriad of reasons, we have all felt vulnerable. The feeling may manifest itself in our bodies and thoughts in different ways and we have our own ways of reacting to it. Or not reacting. I think one way of expressing this vulnerability is that it may feel like you stand before something or someone without any protection, almost like being without skin. And that we can feel the need for some kind of extra skin to wrap around us for warmth, comfort, protection, support...

If you were to make such a symbolic skin - what would it look like?

This blog is dedicated to my project Symbolic Skin. Here, I will present contributions to the project, blog abot it's process and my thoughts around it's theme. Fuller information can be found on the pages above. Feel welcome to join in, read, comment and discuss!

glimpse.

Yesterday someone showed me a photograph. And not just any photograph, but that of another symbolic skin in the making! She wanted to reassure me that things will come to this project. So I hope now that soon, soon, I will be able to present to you this marvelous work of art.

I can tell you that it also connects to nature. I have really been thinking about my relationship to nature on a daily basis for a while now. And am also working on deepening my connection to her. I am waiting for an opportunity to lend a sewing machine, and when I have, I will post what my next artpiece on this subject turned out to be =).

Love to all of you!
