Press text: She sent me an invitation. Ok, let’s do it. Cool. We exchanged some items. A souvenir from Lanzarote, a drawing on the window, a wooden plate, and mirrored goggles. The conversation started the 4th of March 2015, 11:46. She called me from 46227808. Do you like banana sauce? We had a dinner at this vietnamese restaurant with an italian terrazzo floor. There was a need to write a book about it. Glossy paper. 120 gsm silk. Arrangements have to be prepared. The oven was heated up several times. Objects started to bounce and flow. Interrupted by the lapses of time. Manoeuvring through the floating fjords of language, it’s fruitful but also frightful. Later we met this guy in the big square in the middle of the town and talked about simple things.
