I read this article a while back - I have been looking for it, but can’t find it
(no author, media or nothing). Anyway the sum of words was that great artists
had names for their work - not titles, but like Calders Mobiles and Rauschenbergs
Combines. These words made the carreers of the artists and helped them be
canonised into art history forever.

Now I am searching for a word to describe my sculptures. They are combinations of
different inputs like Monument Valley and icebergs or icecubes and cobblestones
and then painted with autolacquer(autoenamel). I let the paint drip and run and
add layer upon layer while sanding down mimicking the erosion of landscapes and
the birdshit/acidrain tinting of classical public sculptures.
So I have combination sculptures mixed with what essentially is abstract painting,
eventhough I stubornly refuse it being painting(even my paintings are not paintings).
What better and more of the tongue name than combstractions or abstinations. Or
the whole shabang Combined Abstractions or Abstract Combination.

I am really into Henry Heerup, Joe Bradley and Folkert De Jong(eventhough the
latter has been overexposed by getting into a Danish underground magazine! No
way but I feel hurt by his inclusion). Check out my Flickr page for some pics of
Heerups old cobra combination trash sculptures called skraldemodeller(trash-
models). They Rule.
