BLACK HOWL.

Knitted light installation.

​

Inspired by the poem “Howl” by Allen Ginsberg,

“Howl” is full of people, places, sex, drugs, music, suicides, unusual language, unorthodox rhythm, the syntax is also unusual in some lines, the language paradoxical as well as the many themes:

• Madness and mental illness 

• Sexuality 

• Drug culture

• Politics 

• Religion 

• War

• Race

• Freedom of speech

• Capitalism 

• Creative inspiration

• Future hopes of a young generation

While I was reading the poem all of the above made me feel like im running into a “Black hole” and I wanted to translate these words together with my feelings into a one whole space.
