TRUTH

Photo: Hans Petter Eliassen
What is your truest moment?
Who owns the truth?
What is truth?

“I find the truth in conversations, face to face,
like twisted trees in Finnmark, visible in rough terrain. The world is big.
It’s good not to be alone.”

“There are no hard distinctions between what is real and what is unreal,
nor between what is true and what is false.
A thing is not necessarily either true or false;
it can be both true and false.
I believe that these assertions still make sense
and do still apply to the exploration of reality through art.“
