VARDØGER

['ʋɑːɾdøːgəɾ]: is a spirit predecessor, from Norwegian folklore. Stories typically include instances that are nearly déjà vu in substance, but in reverse, where a spirit with the subject's footsteps, voice, scent, or appearance and overall demeanor precedes them in a location or activity, resulting in witnesses believing they've seen or heard the actual person, before the person physically arrives.

Chiharu Shiota & Lee Buls installations has also inspired & intrigued me to discover and approach

the possibilities of connections towards nature and the human form, in a way of uncertain perception.
