Memories are loud. I woke up from the dream of my memories, and I found myself in a hospital. They diagnosed me with schizophrenia. You can call me Mika, but that's not my real name. Maybe we've met. I've met a lot of nameless people. They've all gone. No doubt they were scared. We talked awhile and even formed what some people would call friendships. Then the wrong thing came out of my mouth, and it was time to move again. I became a ghost in their lives. Maybe they think crazy is contagious. That's why so many of us are medicated and locked up. Not me, though; not anymore. I like having schizophrenia. I have a constant mirror to my soul that tells me exactly who I am. My deepest subconscious thoughts come to the surface. What a gift. I don't have a mental illness. I have mental adaptations. This is the first book in a three-part series exploring the deepest recesses of myself. Madness is relative.

ALL IS RELATED, FROM THE OUTSIDE IN. LOOK WHAT'S BEHIND IT.Andreas Eriksson (b. 1975 in Björsäter, lives and works in Medelplana, Sweden) is one of Sweden's most notable contemporary artists. His artistic practice is based on a traditional painterly language, but he constantly expands this field to also encompass a vast production of textile works. He examines different histories through conceptual twists and turns in sculpture and prints. This monograph, the artist's first, seeks to explain and illustrate Eriksson's development and thoughts behind the meandering array of works he produces. It is a close look behind the canvas.Andreas Eriksson studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Stockholm from 1993 to 1998 and represented Sweden with the Nordic Pavilion at the 54. Biennale di Venezia. His most comprehensive solo exhibition to date took place in 2014 at Bonniers Konsthall, Stockholm.
