b. 1986 in Sweden
Based in Gothenburg, Sweden
My practice centers around mythologies, rituals and the tactile materiality of objects. In my work I investigate the notion of human interactions with objects and their surroundings, primarily focusing upon the theory of animism. The notion that a trace may somehow remain, long after such interventions. I create my own physical and fictitious archives around this subject by using photography, video, found material and sculpture.
