Creative Mornings Gothenburg - First look at "Nu kan du andas igen"

Don't miss Anna Lena and her new book during our breakfast In August 2018 we had creative Anna Lena Mayor Ekeblad on our Creative Morning stage, talking about courage and sharing stories and examples of crazy, embarrassing and courageous steps she had taken in her career as an artist and graphic designer. But one thing she chose not to share was the most difficult challenge in her life – being chronically ill. This Friday, Anna Lena will be back at CreativeMornings. This time in the lobby of the Stenhammarsalen during the breakfast, giving us a first look at her book ”Nu kan du andas igen”. In 2016 Anna Lena was recovering from surgery in her stomach and had to spend six months being really calm and still. To help the body heal and to keep her mind sane she gave herself a mission. She told herself to write and paint something for at least five minutes everyday. Even on the days she was in pain or didn’t have any ideas she still forced herself to do the mission. It was a way of passing time. Almost three years later she has now turned the texts, illustrations and poems into a book. Unfortunately it is not one of those clever books with a happy ending. It is quite dark. Maybe it is the most courageous and honest things Anna Lena ever created. It is a book for anyone who ever felt afraid, was in pain and most of all it is a book for the ones who are longing for things to change. During our breakfast you will be able to buy the book and artwork from the book printed on canvas and cards. ”Nu kan du andas igen” is written in Swedish » Read more about ”Nu kan du andas igen” » Pre-order ”Nu kan du andas igen” Creative Mornings, fredagen den 26/4-2019, Stenhammarsalen (Konserthuset) i Göteborg.
