There may be a sheet that shields us like a skin.
A thin sheet around our love.
That bears the newborn.
Cools the one that sweats.
Surrounds the lovers.
The ones who loved long ago,
in love scenes that precede us.
And then the sheet around the young.
I want to wrap up their openness.
Raise a weave against the red strobe.
There may be a sheet for the power and fragility of the body.
That surrounds and lets fall.
A cloth to give to the warm darkness.

Ewa Stackelberg




This is another room in Ewas exhibition "Surrender". It´s called
"The young ones" and the pictures are painted with light in a
completely dark room using the widest opening of the camera.








































Det kan finnas ett lakan som skyddar oss likt en hud.
Ett tunt lakan runt vår kärlek.
Som bär det nyfödda.
Svalkar den svettiga.
Omgärdar de älskande.
De för länge sedan älskande,
i kärleksscenen som föregår oss.
Och sedan lakanet om de unga.
Jag vill linda deras öppenhet.
Resa en väv mot den röda strålningen.
Det kan finnas ett lakan för den nakna kroppens kraft och skörhet.
Som omsluter och låter falla.
Ett tyg att ge till det varma mörkret.

Ewa Stackelberg
