may in a mist.

 
[canon av-1]

may was strange, surreal. 
exhaustion, confusion, sorrow. 
small moments of stillness. 
like here at vässarö.

home is gone.

vägen som förut gick hem. nu är hem inte kvar.

this road used to be the road home. but home is not there anymore.

dots of light.

and the sea.

pappa på glasverandan.
lasses hus var en av hans bästa platser bland öarna.
hans sista tur med båten gick dit.
en solig oktoberdag i fjol.
svamp, nubbe och sång som sig bör.
sent smög vi ner till till den tysta, mörka båten.
somnade i natthavets välde. 

my father on the glass veranda.
lasse's house was one of his favourite places among the islands.
his last trip with the boat took him there.
a sunny day in october last year.
newly picked mushrooms, grogs and songs.
it was late when we slipped down to the dark, silent boat.
fell asleep in the sea of the night.

dear ones.

absence.

  
new york last spring.


last summer at vässarö.

my father died the 1st of may, and nothing is the same.

when everything else is dark you can always rely on the...

childhood surroundings.

[canon av-1]

judarnskogen och judarnsjön. här busade mulle under dagisåren. här åts det mariekex och
här dracks det varm choklad i termos. här letades det grodyngel och salamandrar. här
sprangs det runt sjön på friluftsdagar och här tävlades det på scouternas familjedagar. här
promenerades det runt runt runt när tonårsproblemen skulle stötas och blötas. här sjöngs
"vintern rasat" i majbrasans sken. och här rasade visst vintern även för några veckor sedan.

judarn. the forest and the lake close to where i grew up. we still go here from time to time.

kville reality.

[disposable camera]

it is almost two years now, since we made that trip to brazil. somehow i never

published anything from sao paolo here. rio and brasilia are well represented, but not

sao paolo. therefor i start a little series. concluding that trip. two years later.
