FRAGMENTS

(Laasonen Belgrano 2021)

Ornament, Carl Johan Church, Gothenburg (Laasonen Belgrano 2020)

in this room

we are exposed

to fragments

 

we  can  search to  translate  and to describe and to explain,

but we can never be  sure

about  the purpose

for  which it has been placed

in this specific context

 

unless  we listen

with open ears

and  curiosity

 

we can decide to ignore 

from the very beginning

 

fragments are all over

why should one care?

 

Fragments may trigger us in different  ways

perhaps

they are never even seen

not even here

not even  real

 

Fragments  

are more than

we know

 

if  we  learn

to place ourselves

in wonder

 

we may find...

yes,

what will  we find?

 

we can not know

until we take

a risk

 

and move into

the unknown

 

and here

right here

 

 

we can trust

what may seem irrelevant 

 

here and now

 

may become

the  most amazing 

story ever told

 

 

do you see?
