In my work I have been examining the subjective experience and how it can be shared. I am interested in unaware knowledge and the presence of that which is not in the open, such as secrets, oppressed feelings and underlying ambiences. Considering the concept of “reality” as a matter of interpretation and mediation, I have been interested in those as an empowering means. For example, refusal of defining “truth” can be seen as a kind of subversive act.

 

My work often relates to a specific situation or site in the form of audio, video, performance or installation. My aim is to involve the viewer in a mental, emotional and physical way to make her or him become an active participant of the work.
