Stina Wollter, in honor of International Woman's Day

Stina Wollter, a Swedish Artist, Singer, Textwriter, Body Activist and Radio Personality is one of the women I want to honor this

International Woman's Day

I love to end my weekend listen to her 2hr Sunday night radio show. She shows so much love and respect to all the intresting people she´s bringing to the show.

I also follow her fun and thoughtful Instagram account.

This saturday I wen't to her artshow in Uppsala at Galleri 1. Amazing art, sculptures and photography, and to top it off, she was there herself. She held a long talk about her road to this exhibit, about her life, love, struggle, happiness and art. She touched the jam packed galleri and people smiled, laught and cried a little bit.

It was one of the best spent afternoons I have had lately!

So here are some of my photos from the exhibit, she told the stories about them in such a way I'm not able to tell:

Thank You Stina, and all other women on this day, and all other days!

Per!

My favorite photo of hers:

Selfie - by the Artist

Just now does the Swedish National Museum have a exhibit at Konstakademien in Stockholm:

THE ARTIST - KONSTNÄREN

"Entrepreneur. Genius. Avant-Gardist. Norm-Breaker. Visionary. Traveler.

An exhibition about what it means to be an artist, today and historically. About roles, ideals and myths. About power structures and notions of gender, ethnicity, sexuality and class."

The poetry of the February water

My village Lövstabruks ironmaking, economy and existance have been built on the water.

It never stops fascinating me, and since it's a mild February after a lot of snow are all the waterways full of powerfull water.

Enjoy the Poetry of the February water, Per!

Hope You enjoyed, Per!
