Jeremy Blake and Theresa Duncan, who shared an uncommonly close bond.
Theresa Duncan took her own life, followed a week later by her boyfriend, Jeremy  Blake.

Blake, an art-world star acclaimed for his lush and moody “moving paintings,” shape-shifting innovations mixing abstract painting and digital film, had ended his life on the night of July 17, 2007, walking into the Atlantic Ocean off Rockaway Beach, Queens, never to return. “I am going to join the lovely Theresa,” Blake, 35, had written on the back of a business card, which he left on the beach, along with his clothes.

“The lovely Theresa” was Theresa Duncan, a writer, filmmaker, computer-game creator, and Blake’s girlfriend of 12 years. He had found her lifeless body on July 10, 2007, in the rectory of St. Mark’s Church in Manhattan’s East Village, where the couple had been renting an apartment. There was a bowl full of Benadryl pills, a bottle of Tylenol PM, and a champagne glass on the nightstand. There was a note saying,  “I love all of you.” Duncan was 40. The last post on her blog, “The Wit of the Staircase,” was a quote from author Reynolds Price about the human need for storytelling and the impossibility of surviving in silence. Source: Vanity Fair

I really don’t know why I write about these people… people I did not know … but somehow, I recognize myself… and it feels very sad that their lives ended as it did … but I belive their love story continues… in the sky… with lucy and diamonds…

Ibland känns det som hjärnan och hjärtat är två olika företag som jobbar med HELT olika saker… Kollisionskurs!

Sometimes you just feel different.

Vars tog vi vägen?
