I Used To Think

"I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought, there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it's true I'm here, and I'm just as strange as you", Frida Kahlo.

Picture and quote is taken from Fuck Yeah Frida Kahlo ;-).


To me Frida Kahlo is an amazing artist. I discovered her when I was 16 years old, and I still remember reading her biography and feeling inspired, heartbroken and surprised at the same time. This month an exhibition with her and her husband Diego Rivera's works will open in Gothenburg at Göteborgs Konstmuseum. Oh, I really hope I will be able to go there before it closes in January.
