Creating memories

• by sensing and tapping into the body

Creating this project came out natural, as Ib started to shed the idea of pleasing and image of my artistic self and instead, expressing what I felt and always had felt inside: the urge for creating memories, inspiring and getting inspired to continuing the cycle of creating.

How to then create an experience for the visitor, the listener and viewer when entering the room was the main question.

Without limiting myself and yet, holding on to what already was in flow, without pushing myself and still following something that felt true for me, is truly interesting as the ideas keep changing and still does. It's a fascinating process of letting go and stepping into the unknown, yet known, when expressing and opening up.

Tuning into the body and geographical settings

Somehow the places that has opened up for me in connection with the project "-Like the Tide" seems to be connected one way or another.
Places rooted intense power structures or inventions, that has been used for the sake of greed, destruction and death.

I visit these places and sit in silence.

Charging up

When re-calibrating my body and mind, doing a fullbody reset, I like to ground by standing with my bare feet in the grass, the ocean or feeling the warmth of the sun.

Connecting

Connecting with nature is not just something I do for the project but an essential part of my life. both for maintaining the aspects of me that easily gets out of balance when living in the middle of the city as connecting with the nature outside me is essential for connecting with the nature within.
We are nature and we need the connection.

Remember

Dreaming is not just something we do when sleeping. It is something we do all the time, we imagine, visiualise and remember. We are born of 70% water (Masuro Emoto) and as time goes by, the amount decreases until the body drops. During our life span what is connecting us all is the ocean. We need water in order to survive, to live and have a healthy life.

Image what the ocean would look like if we considered it a being? A friend? A foe? A lover etc?
