Ave Lucifer

Ave Lucifer, We are all Holy
Not just the Priest, the Pastor and
The Politician

Ave Lucifer, Everything is Sacred
Not just the Religion

Ave Lucifer, Your time is spent
Your Illusion is coming to an End
Your jewels are worthless
But a high price we’ll pay none the less.

Ave Lucifer, Alas it has come to an end
Your materialistic Empire
Is not sustainable...

Supplement to “Ave Lucifer”

The key to the stitching/collage works lies in the process of creation and not in the final product. The process that I go through, by taking older works that did not work so well, cutting it up and reordering it to form a new composition is where the “correction” takes place. The process is in that way symbolic. The idea of not being attached or holding on to the things in the past that did not work, but using those experiences or “products” for a base to start from and to learn from. Recycling and not just discarding. I also buy very little for the new work, perhaps off cuts from fabric stores, but mostly it comes from older works. The feeling that I get by generating the new work, the over all idea that comes forth during the process then stimulates the title. So I don’t start with an idea, but with old ones that I have discarded, then I go through a process of chaos/destruction, and rebuilding to form a new order. Holding on to what worked and recreating what didn’t. The correction takes place somewhere in between in a place disconnected from time and space.
