- P R O C E S S (video) is a cooperation with three photographers and another person. Two of them act, while two work with the video. I had the main role and directed the others to do the more and more repeating movements to convey the perception of time. The video was then cut of a technician and then music was added.
- SOMA (performer / photo exhibition) – Was a conceptual exhibition I held in Reykjavik, Iceland. Pictures from several photographers were exposed, they represented the behaviour in the environment around you, in this case the extreme icelandic landscape. I was performing and modelling for the pictures, and I set up the exhibition. The pictures were printed on halfway transparent paper and they were put in enlightened frames.
- Fluxus inspiration (painting and exhibition)- is an exhibition consisting of paintings and drawings I had at a record store in Alta, Norway. The woode panels were used because they fit the environment, and they got the descriptions of the works written directly on them, to create the sensation that it was a once-time exhibition. The drawings should show the process to (and through) a work, and they should have even more focus then the work itself.
- SWEET DARK OF MINE (performance- photography exhibition)- Was en exhibition of an itinerant nightlife alternative event. The lights were low, and the darkest pictures in a serie (from pictures taken all over Europe by different photographers) took their place in the darkness. The descriptions were written with neon colors that fit the few colorful lights characteristics of the place. The spectators get written explanation of each picture and phrase.
- GOLD (bodypainting and photography)- Is a serie of pictures that represents the japanese art of Kintsugi, that uses gold to repair ceramics. Here it is showed as a way to heal oneselves psychologically. Colors are used to paint on the body so that it can interact with itself.
- DETAILS (photography) – is a serie of photographies taken in different weather conditions, and all of them er representative for the place where they are taken. They show details on the body, and how different light and weather can influence our own perceptions of them.
- SHARP CONTRASTS (photography)- is a series of pictures of two different subjects in the same light settings that have as a characteristic a sharp black and white. The impression changes together with the shadows.
