Viktor Kopp and Niklas Söderberg |
The violet book HÄR is a collaboration between Viktor Kopp and Niklas Söderberg, artist respective poet, living in Malmö.
Söderberg and Koop have compiled old works and worked out new ones, that conducts themselves to a particular kind of irony – term: ‘both’ rather than ‘instead of’ or ‘neither of’. It can be ‘both’ as in both figuratively and picturesque (formalism), both metaphorically and literally, both symbol and form. The irony here is not to be looked at as a chosen critical stance, but rather as a wound (if a wound besides suffering could also bring pleasure).
