Drawing

Visualization of my own intuitions and ideas about Thomas Brasch’s poem in a freehand drawing that fills the room. “I don’t want to lose what I have, but I don’t want to stay where I am, but I don’t want to leave those I love, but I don’t want to see those I know anymore, but I don’t want to die where I live, but I don’t want to go where I die: I want to stay where I have never been” – I don’t want to lose what I have, Thomas Brasch
