Description

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
You learn through conversation about film, art, music etc as I am a director and producer of films and larger art projects, exhibitions etc. We also have music very high on the agenda, wiring, performing and recording stuff.
I don't have a NGO or Charity. It's not quite the way it works in Sweden, or at least I don't know of similar situations in the art world. My project is completely funded by me and has absolutely no commercial status, purpose or goal. It's all there to be my contribution to the art community and people who want to be part of it or come and do their projects in my gallery and performance and film studio space. This is more me as an artist paying back to the community that helped me throughout the years and to share my experience from working in about 40 countries.
Help
With some friends and an architect we are building an art and music studio and a terrace hangout area above what is to become an art gallery and performance space, film school etc. I've previously had galleries in New York and Stockholm, but turned to film so the gallery is also sometimes a studio for shoots etc. .
I also would love some gardening help for someone who is interested in that. We are 3 km from beach and of course there will be lot of time to enjoy this beautiful part of Sweden.
