MYLING closing party…
Last chance to see the Tusen Serier: Myling exhibition will be on Friday (Dec 19, 17-22)!
Based on a short story by Amanda Casanellas, I’m one of nine artists who have made interpretations of parts of the story. This is my contribution:
A triptych of paintings made with a roller, which was just as fun to do as I had planned it to be.
Come on Friday to see them in real life!

Tusen Serier: MYLING
The Myling is a child who has been murdered by its mother and buried secretly in the woods or beneath the floor boards. Stuck between two dimensions, not alive, but alive enough to fuel their little bodies to keep growing in their graves in an unnatural way. A way that is not of our world.
Amanda Casanellas has taken this mythological creature and brought it into a new postapocalyptic context in a short story that has now been illustrated for this exhibition by different comics artists.

Yvan Alagbé & Amandine Boucher: MYSTERIES OF LOVE
Love, love, love. In every novel, every movie, every song. For sure, we know of many love stories, were they real or imagined. What about a history of love? Where to begin? Love is the start. Love is the end. Love is the way. Love is the mystery of live.
By Yvan Alagbé with Amandine Boucher of FREMOK.

Chili Com Carnne: QCDA
WHAT DOES QCDA STAND FOR?
QUINTESSENTIAL COMICS FOR DOCTORS AND ACCOUNTANTS?
QUOTES FROM CATHOLIC DUCKS ON ACID?
QUICK COMICS FOR DOPEY ATHLETES?
QUEST FOR CRAZY DOCTOR AUTOPSY?
QUATRO CHAVALOS DO APOPCALIPSE?
WHO CARES!!! We are not looking for treasures or answers. Our efforts and wanderings may seem futile, purposeless, and even our flesh garments meaningless, but even without a battle or mission there is an incorporeal ambition in us. We know that nothing rises from rotten bodies.
QCDA is Giant/size/Comix/zine of Chili Com Carne that brings the Portuguese new breed of comic authors in the format of four dudes (Afonso Ferreira, André Pereira, Rudolfo and Zé Burnay) and four damsels (Amanda Baeza, Hetamoé, Sílvia Rodrigues and Sofia Neto). Their works are dazzled and confused in such a way that embody the contemporary “4 knights of aPOPcalipse”: Anorexia, Smart Shops, Hooliganism and Cancer.

Det Ligger i Tiden
Idag är det vernissage på Regionsmuséet i Kristianstad för utställningen Det Ligger i Tiden, där Tusen Serier är med som samarbetspartner.
Under hösten 2013 var vi på Österängsgymnasiet och höll workshops med ett 50-tal elever. De hade skrivit texter på temat TID, som de sedan gjorde om till serier. Ett antal av serierna valdes sedan ut och tuschades och färglades av Amanda Casanellas och Mattias Elftorp.
Serierna är en del av en större utställning som bla innehåller stämpelklockor med olika frågor om tid, olika citat, fakta om hur människor förhållit sig till tid genom tiderna och ett dataspel gjort just för utställningen. Allt uppbyggt i en steampunkinspirerad miljö.
Utställningen kommer under de närmaste åren att vandra och har redan bokats in i 4 ytterligare städer.
Och i gästboken kan man såklart hitta flera Doctor Who-referenser redan på de första sidorna…
Wormgod: AFTER THE ENDS OF THE WORLD
The world ended in many different ways at once, creating time lines diverging from the straight line that used to be known as history. Self-destruction! Extra-terrestrial invasion! Undeath! Catastrophe! These are visions of the futures that came after the end of life as you know it.

Mitt bidrag till Asylgruppen Lunds Asylkalendern 2015: Vackra ord.
Aktuellt nu efter valet. Saker som är bra att ha i åtanke innan man slår sig för bröstet och känner sig duktig för att man inte röstade för SD. Lugn och trygg tillbaka i Socialdemokratins Sverige. Lugn och trygg på ett sätt som man bara kan vara om man inte är papperslös och jagas oavsett regering och oavsett om SD får 5 eller 13 eller 33%.
Visst är SDs framgångar ett dåligt tecken, men de har inte monopol på rasism. Och Många av deras väljare verkar dessutom främst vara missnöjda med de andra partierna. Vilket är fullt förståeligt.
