Tracking Lines amongst Stones

This land of Äskhult is considered as a continually unfolding story. The surface of landscape tells or describes the chronicle of life, housing and labor.

Plowing with a digger plough involves interpreting the furrows in the field. Which side should I begin with this year? From the field’s interior or its perimeter? It requires balancing and gauging to insert the plow into the soil in a straight trajectory. Plowing is navigating with both hands, shoulders, gaze, and whistle. The focus is on the line between the horses. When nearing a stone, angle the plow to one side.

A new furrow must be established.
