Det känns precis som när jag var liten/ It feels just like when I was a child
drawing, 2013
The starting point for this project is a drawing that I made when I was five years old. I was never satisfied with the drawing and my expectations of myself were too high. As an adult I still have the same high demands. In this project, I asked a painter to help me to get the drawing the way I wanted when I was child.
The project is about how these trivial situations in the childhood can effect you and how the emotion still remains. On a personal level, I try to correct the memory of the childhood drawing, redo and make it right. But instead the memory repeats itself and the feeling returns.
