Across Heaven - Beyond the Clouds by Daniel Berg

In 1962, the Swedish poet and Nobel laureate Tomas Tranströmer published his collection of poems the Half-Finished Heaven. Here there is both uncertainty and a quiet melancholy about opportunities we never see and take, but at the same time a simple joy and an obvious sense of freedom expressed in heartbreaking images and an incredible linguistic tension.
When the artist Peter Christensson heard Daniel's new work for vibraphone and organ, he saw a green sky envisioned, but what’s behind the clouds? This is precisely what is central to art, poetry and music – to describe and portray the unpredictable and enigmatic – a quiet sadness over opportunities we never see and take, but at the same time a joy and obvious sense of freedom expressed in creation.
