Some cultures see owls as a harbinger of death or change. I think of a symbolic death - we could kill our old ways of thinking in order to bring about the change required to restore a sane and normal balance in the world. That may involve a combination of things, including technological innovation, but mainly a shift away from human dominance over nature. Humility and gratitude would be a nice start and taking only what we need.

A work on paper I'll be showing at Galleri Christoffer Egelund for my second solo show with the gallery next May. I was in Copenhagen for the first time two years ago during the winter and loved it, loved the Danes. They really know how to have a good time, these Vikings. I can't wait!
