Both blind works have two states, heads or tails, A or B. We reduce life down to happy and sad, good and bad, 1 and 0. A lot of jokes are like this. They are A then B. The Irish playwright Samuel Beckett was great at this. “I Can’t Go On Like This. That’s What You Think!” comes from the 1952 play Waiting For Godot. In Beckett’s play, the two main characters are somehow trapped in limbo, waiting for something, or someone to come along with a new story and conception of reality that can make sense of the strange, unequal, chaotic and disconcerting present, but hey, at least they have each other – and so do we!


The other blind work includes a photograph I took in Athens, in the Nordic Library where I was part of an exhibition last year. The library is in the centre of the city, just down the hill from the Acropolis. To make the researchers working in the dark library feel a little better about being inside in such a wonderful city, they’d wallpaper pasted a fake window that you could look upon from the desk.

Both works, Someday Soon, But Not Today + I Can’t Go On Like This. That’s What You Think!, are currently on show at Haninge Konsthall as part of Krona Eller Klave?, Stockholm (Sweden) until the 10th May 2026.
