Address: Studio11, Sinsenveien 11, 0572 Oslo
Floor: 3. etasje
The studio is open Saturday 27 April from 12-17
In my projects, I am concerned with fringe areas, vulnerable groups and change processes in our surroundings. They explore man’s relationship to place, urban development and the relationship between nature and culture.
I work with installations consisting of found and made objects, as well as drawing and photography.
The starting point for the work is often a specific geographical area. The projects are based on fieldwork, where I explore the place and look at e.g. history, location and materials that represent the specific landscape.
Several projects deal with the spaces in between, places that have arisen randomly in contrast to the planned and constructed. I reflect on how a place’s design sets conditions for who and how the place is used.
Installation, drawing, photo, text.
