STOCKHOLM_PART 3
i have just come back from stockholm, it was a truly enlightening experience. as my boyfriend put it, we were basically on a wes andreson-esque adventure where i looked for my heroes in hopes of finding meaning in my work.
and you know what? i did! we should have filmed it.
there is something really mysterious/exciting/magical about the way things unfold. i first emailed Tom Hedqvist of tio...

really quite sad but incredibly revealing
