This blog will be discussing both high culture and popular culture events and phenomena’s. I will be analyzing movies, books and TV shows. Since I’m a feminist, I’ll usually view the stuff from a feministic viewpoint, but not always. I have also been an atheist for a long time now, so I will also write about “atheist issues” occasionally. The main goal will be to talk about what impact cultural phenomena’s have on society, if it speaks up for people or not.

Hej! Jag är jätteglad över att få vara med på din blogg och för de fina orden!
Jag ser i kommentarerna att du mailat mig men jag har tyvärr inte fått något mail. Maila gärna till rosenterna@hotmail.com istället, det kanske fungerar bättre.
Angående fisk-mobilen så är den namnlös, den är en del av hela bilden.
Jag kommer att uppdatera min hemsida snart och där kommer utställningen heta “Living room”. Det är inte alltid jag översätter mina svenska utställnings-namn direkt till engelska, det är svårt att få rätt innebörd.
Jag hoppas det är ok att jag skriver på svenska, säg till annars!
Tack igen för uppmärksamheten, det betyder mycket!
In referencing your December 2010 entry, there is a beautiful print of an angel with tall exaggerated wings. I am writing to find out who the artist is of that image. Hope you can help me.
Thank you very much!

Hello!
I found the picture on a search on “Google Pictures”, so unfortunately I do not know who drew it. I couldn’t find any info on the picture through search, so honestly I don’t think the picture is drawn by anyone super-famous. But if you would like, I could send you a copy of the picture if it might help your writing piece?
Sorry for the poor answer, but hope that helped somehow,
Maaretta.
