The masks left for a few weeks ago. I spent an intense time working in Denmark, thinking what the masks have contributed.
As always in a creative process artistic encounters seem to synchronize. The masks came to me perfectly timed.
I was working with a script for the Swedish Radio Theatre, my journey with the script started with 2 characters, Memory and Forgetfulness. The masks took the shape of those characters. They told me stories, inspired me, touched me. Writing is a horrible lonesome experience. But the masks gave me company, I could play with them. They seemed to connect me to all needed wisdom.
Thanx for visiting me!!

How great ----- such a great inspiration the masks awoke ---- I'm thrilled to listen to the radio theatre ... and see if I can feel any traces of the masks.

Thank you Åsa
