Biography

A recurring theme in my work involves curiosity in and observation of everyday life.
To make the everyday apparent, my work makes an absurd alteration to an object before putting it back into an everyday life situation.

My current work is shown as a video documenting a performative activity (based on role play with incongruously placed everyday material).
This work, informed by Martin Walde’s work who makes a condition for people to interact to his staging, combines video, performance, sculpture and installation. In creating my work, I intervene in a social structure with a performative activity, highlighting through a funny situation the otherwise everyday.

Due to the experimental /situational aspects of the work it is possible to gain different results at different times.
This has prompted a wider experimentation, taking the work to different European countries in different galleries.
The work becomes an interesting observation into the differences/ similarities of response to the same absurd situation in the everyday.
