“There is value in the insular, in the drilling deep and tunnelling down, ‘to dig where one stands’. It is a practice to be held dear in the creative process, but at times it is a lonely road under the earth…  

One year of creating alongside each other, working on the island of the sun and wind. Digging? Reaching? Bridging? Trying to go up and over, to arch between where we came from and where we will go next. Let us search for pathways to one another, extending an arm across our varying practices to reconcile in an exchange. Holding an ongoing conversation from our respective corners, all the while, with the air on our shoulders and a warm heat on our backs.

There is a gift to be found in this construction. A dirtying of hands while we slowly build our bridges, sifting out the gems in amongst process. ‘Why Dig A Tunnel When You Can Build A Bridge’ is our ‘gems’ after a year at Öland’s Folkhögskola, in Konstskolan 2. A culmination of our pursuit in assembling future bridges.”
