\nThis piece started off from a series of curved wall sketches. The specific curved form was producing the effect of a closed space but open to the surroundings. The issue of hiding and the hiding-place as a start of childrens play and imaginations were important considerations but also the idea of entrance of a mental passage in time and memory. The form also materialised the philosophical cause and effect and the mystical arrow of time.<\/p>\n

\nThe smell from the hay, the temporary construction (with its material) and the inner space which opened up towards the peasant landscape made me think of memories and activities that belonged to my childhood. After a period a ruin-alike shape takes form (and the hay-smell has slightly changed).<\/p>\n![\"Entrance_Early_July2006\"](\"http:\/\/d32767810.u339.surf-town.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Entrance_Early_July2006.jpg\")

\nRemanings from grass and some hay was left on the ground when a circle was cutout with an old fashioned scythe to enhance the effects of some activity that had been interrupted. The form open as a scene of events was suitable for creating engagement into a sudden in-the-moment activity from the public i.e. a role play or story telling. The distant placement of the wall was nessesary to make the observer go out in the field and to mentaly produce some expectations.<\/p>\n
\n“Vinden har delvis raserat Tomas Nygrens vitkalkade mur av h\u00f6balar ute p\u00e5 f\u00e4ltet, men samtidigt har ruink\u00e4nslan vuxit. Verkets titel “Ing\u00e5ng” syftar p\u00e5 den smala passage som \u00f6ppnar sig i h\u00f6et n\u00e4r man kommer n\u00e4ra. Det finns ber\u00e4kning i den r\u00f6relse bes\u00f6karen m\u00e5ste g\u00f6ra f\u00f6r att ta sig in mellan balarna; pl\u00f6tsligt \u00e4r man p\u00e5 andra sidan och muren \u00e4r borta. Kanske vill konstn\u00e4ren visa att den enda ing\u00e5ng som finns leder till dig sj\u00e4lv. Det h\u00e4nger p\u00e5 dig vad du g\u00f6r. ” Niels Hebert, Arbetarbladet<\/p><\/blockquote>\n![\"IMG_1013L\"](\"http:\/\/d32767810.u339.surf-town.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_1013L.jpg\")
