 this week's inspiration:

Ssion - wolves eyes

Christopher Kane - again and again, always and 4 e.

Me and Deprimert Julatre, just got back from this very interesting and in many ways exotic trip round and about  the largest, northernmost and least populated county in Norway, Finnmark.  

we visited Hammerfest, Karasjok, Kautokeino, and Alta. and we even went to this really small place with a pub/disco in Finland one night.

we met a lot of cool people and saw a lot of nice things up there in north Sápmi.

it was pretty C-R-A-Z-Y @ times.

( but I'll come back to that some other day and maybe some photos as well.)

coming back, Tromsø suddenly felt a lot more like home than it did before and the city didnt seem so small after all..

after days with duodji, sapmi history and politics its ok to sit down and let the shallowness wash inn over me once again..

and what is better than to dream away with the lovely dresses by Christopher Kane... 

I especially like the gorilla dresses.. and the orange ones.. 

and the black and the pink.. and the shoes.. and..oh well..

Nice nice nice. and so on..

Crazy Girls

video (mini-dv, dvd)
duration: 8.25 min
©Jesper Nordahl 2001

"The Crazy Girls, Annija, Katrina and Agnese dance through neglected streets singing songs you'll be familiar with. Oblivious to their surroundings, they try to concentrate on the beat and tempo of the music as they dance towards the camera. But the Crazy Girls are not the latest girl band, but three ten year olds from Karosta, a port suburb of Liepaja, Latvia. The interview and film by Swedish artist Jesper Nordahl adds to their armoury of girl band accoutrements - they have the group, the music, the choreographer - the dream is once more reaffirmed. They are passing their time playing-out the same harmless dream that occupies many children their age, to be like the famous people most similar to them, in this case Britney Spears and A-teens, a Swedish Abba cover band. (...)

One can surmise something of their lives from what surrounds them, a mixture of broken Russia and broken USSR, the modern and the orthodox equally neglected within a damaged Latvia. Between 1890 and 1994 Karosta fell under the rule of Russia, the Soviet Union, Germany and Latvia; each leaving their mark on the architecture and people. In the film the girls dance past 1980s housing, Stalinist era buildings and the Orthodox cathedral built by Tsar Nicolai II. When Latvia gained it's independence from the Soviet Union in 1991, and the Latvian nation was re-established, ninety percent of Karosta's population became aliens (non-citizen inhabitants) as they were considered, even if Latvian born, ethnic Russians.  

(...)Annija, Katrina and Agnese should be one of the first generations to experience the mixed blessings of Latvia being a full-member of the European Union, yet if they are aliens in their country of birth what will the future hold for them then?"

- Lesley Young, 2004

( I've heard rumours that Annija is studying law these days.. if I remember it right..) Anyways you should check out Jespers other works too  it's pretty interesting stuff. *oh and you can probably email him to get information on how to get hold on his films..? :-)

GOT SOME NEW FRIENDS

this weekend is spent @ Homlagarden in Norheimsund by Hardangerfjorden, Bjørnars hometown. He grew up on a farm and these where his only friends:

THE SWEDISH ROSE

Tomorrow @ Landmark, Flaggfabrikken will serve us a performance by the swedish artist Joanna Rytel and a concert by the american queer electro hiphop riot grrl band Scream Club.

The Swedish performance artist Joanna Rytel performs her installation ”Happy Abortion Children”, which is a birthday-party for all the aborted babys in heaven. There will be embryos made out of cake, which we all can eat. And we can consider wether 2 say YES or NO to abortion. (which we all know the answer to already I hope...)

Rytel works with performance, video and photography. She is known in Sweden for, together with artist Fia Stina Sandlund, having disturbed the Miss Sweden contest in its live show final by running up onstage with a banner that said ”Gubbslem” (”old man..s slime”).

After the birthdayparty Scream Club will have a show. They are kool!
