Spanish artist Valdés
Manolo Valdés, a Spanish artist known for his unique method of drawing from art history to create his paintings, prints & sculptures in a signature style of pared-down forms & unrefined mark-making.
His busts & portraits with delicate & soft features always allude to women, caught in a moment & does not refer to specific individuals but rather idealized portraits in the tradition way as of Antic Egyptian or Roman statues. He visualises women based on their strength, their ability to interact with their environment & be part of the public space.
Art
I always try to visit a museum or art gallery when traveling. Preferably the great masters who always can be found on one of the floors of the buildings. In addition, museums are generally incredibly beautiful & calming with the large quiet halls & lighting.
Fika
Fika is a Swedish social institution that involves interpersonal interaction & a relaxing break in combination with the consumption of coffee or another drink & coffee bread, sandwich or other edibles.
The Swedish fika tradition stretches back several hundred years, but it was only in 1910 that the now world-famous word fika began to be used. This tip with buns & pastries in mini format is perfect for fika this summer.
Monochrome
Black & white kitchen – a monochromatic beauty. The interior is complemented with a few mid-century pieces & IKEA furnishings that makes a great match for a personal, inviting & stylish home.
