OLOF INGER

BEYOND HEARTBEATS AND BLACK HOLES

7 MAY – 7 JUNE 2026

Transformation
It does not happen only outside of us.
It happens within us.
It is upheaving.
Sometimes brutal.
It touches something we cannot defend ourselves against.
Something breaks down.
Something takes shape.
The human being remains.
Changed.
We face it.
And perhaps,
when all is said and done,
we embrace it.
