Quotes from the Essay :

"The need to create more specific work, which convinces me of its reason to exist, has influenced my research in to the field of shapes and measurements. I would like to know what contributes to, why and how."

"Drawing shells whilst holding them with my hand I discovered many similarities of the lines and forms."

"I chose a shell and drew it from four angles. Insisting on the observations I made and the possibilities, which develop from the drawings of the shells, I tried to draw a line that could be proven to exist because it was developed by a natural object."

"The shell is an organism that grows and expands in a time span, which allows marks and lines to be formed with harmonical analogies."

"Being a woman I feel absolutely connected to the field of measurement. The biological cycle, pregnancy and its development, are measured by time and proportion ."
