s o r r y m u m homo ludens - play and create

Collage & photos: K.Udland

This collage is a result of a particular person not wanting to work - just play. She being all homo ludens - a playing woman - today.

The issue when not keeping focus on workrelated activities - during the hours of the day you are supposed to, is to make sure you enjoy yourself. Because God knows - and you all know - guiltypleasure is hard to deal with.

Then again, I believe we actually do not play enough on a daily basis. We should spend time playing every day, and sometimes all day. Have fun. Play with whatever gives you joy and pleasure. Know what happened to me after todays playday? I awoke my creativity. And work became play.

Go! Play! Create!

s o r r y m u m meets the people - Piri from Aitu, Cook Islands - the bread changed everything

Piri on Rarotonga. "You can only appreciate so many mountains and beautiful lakes, sunsets and turquoise lagoons - then you have to meet the people ", a friend once said. And he was right. When travelling over time, as I did a year, your surroundings start to not give any meaning. You stop seeing and appreciating nature. Nature fatigue . Very interesting phenomena that can even make you sad and depressed. Pointing out the reason helped. I knew I had to meet the people, so I changed my focus. On Rarotonga, an island in the Cook Islands, I met Piri. In 2002. First at his coconut-tree-climbing show where we als where taught how to make a fire with sticks and to cook with hot stones in the ground. We all had to work together and it gave meaning. It took us half a day to cook the meal. Piri making a fire. The stones were heated by the fire we made. Piri worked hard with dry moss and two sticks and we all gave shelter from the wind so he could nurture the fire. Piri work...

s o r r y m u m om kjerringer 2 - Troll eller kjerringa som reiste seg, eventyr, et dikt og fanteri

"Kjerringa mot strømmen". Illustrasjon: Carl Larsson Det var en gang ei kjerring. Har man først sett på emnet "kjerringer" øker fokuset ytterligere. Man observerer, erfarer, går i prosesser og konkluderer. For jeg ser de rundt meg. Kjerringene. Sittende fast med kroknesa si i hver sin stubbe. Magre i sinn. De sitter fast med nesa, men klorer seg fast med magre, sterke hender. Eller små, lubne. Stubben har dype røtter, men intet bladverk. Ingen vekst. Ingen lysegrønne blader om våren eller kalde grener om vinteren som sparer sevjen. Er man fast er man statisk. Og med nesa i stubben ser du ikke langt. Men hva er så egentlig kjerringenes stubbe? Det kan være så mangt, men den har røttene sine dypt nede i frykten og makten. Stubben kan være en jobb kjerringa tviholder på for å oppnå status, en mann med tykk lommebok, en usedvanlig vakker kvinne (husk at kjerringer kommer i begge kjønn), et vakkert hus fra Bonytt eller hva som helst som holder fasaden. Nå kan ...
