about
I am an artist living and working in Denmark and Berlin. I graduated from Hochschule für Bildende Künste Braunschweig, Germany, in 2021.
I am interested in the life of the mind and feelings and their existential and political implications. I explore dis-connectivity, fragmentation, ‘self’-incoherence, and reality variability. Working with video, installation and text, my focus recurringly lies on language, states of articulation, unfinishedness, and potentiality. I often loop in second-guessing and contradiction. Insecurity, betrayals of language and form, and works potentially turning against themselves, is central to my work and process.
I work both individually and collaboratively.
