Information about the artist / the group

I work in a multidisciplinary approach towards photography, moving image, sculpture and installation. In my work I, use found images and objects, which I recycle, rework, and present in a new manner. By reworking the found material, I investigate and create new meanings and interpretations that underlie the seemingly ordinary subjects of my work.

At my ateljee one can see finished art works, works in process and artist books I have made as well as their early version. My ateljee includes a small art collection. At the ateljee, I present the the works from the collection next to my own work, creating a dialogue between my work and the works I have collected.

Program during Konstrundan

In my studio one can see some of my finished art works, works in process and artist books, as well as their early version. As well as serving as a work space, my studio includes a small art collection. The current collection consist of for example found objects, artworks bought from second hand stores and works I bought or exchanged with other artist. At the studio, I present the works from the collection next my own, creating a dialogue between my art and the artworks, I have obtained.
