Les Chansons D'Amour

In an honest attempt I'm hereby trying to express my fascination and love for this fantastic movie Les Chansons D'Amour (The Love Songs) it's difficult when one have to see the movie to understand. So I'm offering a few pictures from the movie instead, and recommend for each and one of you all out there to find this movie and let it love you. A quirky little ensemble of actors, and the ever so brilliant Louis Garrel (whom you will enjoy in several other movies). Just a pleasure and such a different movie. Gorgeous!

Steffen Dam

Steffen Dam. Incredible glass artist. Simply beautiful!

♥ Coraline ♥

Coraline. A beyond fantastically created movie that captures you from the first scene - and if you allow yourself to fall and join Coraline's adventure and mind, you are guaranteed an experience like no other. (For the record, the 3D version was spellbinding, but even without it you are granted a great time.)

Grete Prytz Kittelsen (1917-)

A Fabulous Woman from Norway - well known world wide.
A pioneer and extremely creative and exploring within her field. She has made som fantastic pieces throughout the years, and as shown under, a personal favorite with the striped enamel bowls - and also her famous lotus flower bowls. Highly respected, alongside other modernistic artist/designers/architects such as Ray & Charles Eames, Walter Gropius, Frank Lloyd Wright and Mies Van Der Rohe. Can't not love this, hmm?

Artsy Berlin

You know what? I think I would like to go to Berlin. Preferably today.

Bring my camera and just wander around and soak up all the impressions of this inspirational city.

Momo

Momo Eller Kampen Om Tiden. My favourite childhood book. About time, and fighting against waisting it, all in metaphores, it will mesmerize you and you will fall in love with Momo. Find it translated into your language an indulge yourself. You will not regret it. Regret it and I will personally bake you a cake and send it to you. But I guarantee you, you will not, ever regret it.

Beautiful.
(To whoever I stole this photo from, thank you and sorry. But thank you.)

Miranda July

Miranda July. Another absolutely fantastic artist.
A Performance Artist with incredible passion and need to express.


From her amazing movie Me and You and Everyone We Know.


The sweetest book, I think everyone should read. No One Belongs Here More Than You.

Frida Kahlo - Sigh, what a Woman.

A favourite.
Frida (1907-1954), her life and how she portrayed it in her paintings is to great admiration and inspiration.
(Only intended to post one photo of her but there was no chance of choosing only one. Enjoy!)
