Artist statement
- Åpent atelier lør 20.september 2025 kl 12-17 -
My practice breeds from an inquiry into the clashes between the self and the collective. With intimate, cringeworthy, and horrifying stories, I aim to inspire conversations about how we construct meaning within the spaces we inhabit, and how those spaces, in turn, define and create our own silly sense of being.
