The performance engages with and reactivates Masson’s installation ‘Butterflies’ from 2000. The work consists of hundreds of colourful drawings on the inside of used envelopes, that were originally made in a participatory performance at Traneudstillingen at Gentofte Library.

“I never counted how many of these envelopes I did. Each of them was an automatic free drawings never the same, each I opened with a ritual. Like opening a body in a way, sometimes I smelled the inside before. I remember the gesture of opening the letter of a lover. We do not smell emails we get these days...I have kept some letters of a grand mother or others and I feel like there is still the scent of that person. Sometimes while drawing I imagined that it was like the remembrance of someone who died someone flying away...thousand of butterflies...in a huge patchwork. On a wall they seem to be each individual entity moving their wings.”
