Lighten is a key word not only in my works but also in my way of living. In the conduct of my daily life, I only use the clock when I have to catch a plane or a train. In my tapestries I try to create light out of the darkness. In one huge work called “Homage à R.” I refer to the painter Rembrandt because he was the master, he was the one who could conjure the light. A Danish painter Oluf Høst once said: “you won`t get the sun by painting all in yellow”. Now I´m excited about the light of Shetland.
