The Brown Book - On Nourishment, is the space of change. This place within us, and surrounding us, where everything that has the potential to become something, can be nourished.I imagine this space of change to be like a dark brown field of fertile soil. A moist earth providing us with the optimal conditions to plant something. We enter it when we place a wish, a thought, an idea, a seed of something that is not concrete yet, but something that could become manifest, if it receives the right nourishment; of focus, of will, of feelings, of water, of time, of minerals and whatever it should need. In this protected space, we are nourishing changes all the time, be it consciously or not. This book reminds us to be aware of this, and take responsibility for nurturing the changes we genuinely want to see. This means that the space of change is also the space of patience, because change takes time. When we look at nature, it contains cycles of nourishment, of time passing in space that allows something to grow and become - or be dried out, forgotten or even destroyed before it becomes manifest. I believe that these cyclical processes seen in nature are also how lives, thoughts, ideas, projects, and wishes are manifested: That things take time to grow, and if planted at the right time and place, and nourished in a proper way, they will become something. This patience and connection to knowing the right time, place and Nourishment to make anything happen is therefore also how we work as people. Things that are to become, take time. This book is thus also a space of patience, of something that is growing to one day exist.

The Brown Book - On Nourishment is the 9th bookin the series 'Colour Spectrum of 11 Spaces', which consists of Calligraphic Manuscripts, handwritten books created between 2011 and 2015. It is the book of giving and receiving and connecting to that cycle of creating to which we all belong, the deep dark depths of the soil that hold the remains of that which was, that which is, and that which will become.It reminds us of the rules that belong to the process of becoming, and is a call for us all to take responsibility for the times to come, and start creating the change we want to see in the world by nourishing - first our ideas, then our concrete definitions of what they could be, taking the Genuine actions towards the wishes and actions that will build the world as we genuinely want it to be - for ourselves, for us all, and for the ones that are to come.
