TheSinger 2012
To my grandmother, dressmaker Evi Alfredsson 1901 – 1966, whom I never met.
The Singer (2012). Photograph of a sewing machine positioned on the shoreline of the Turku archipelago, Finland, facing west toward Sweden.

Without wind 2011
Without Wind (2011). Site-specific installation at Götafors in an old industrial landscape. Twelve oars placed parallel to the river articulate a state of suspended propulsion in a former industrial waterway. The work anticipates later investigations in Big Blu by addressing water as an active agent and by exploring the tension between surface, depth, movement, and human intervention.

KALASA 2011
KALASA (2011) is a drama-based sound installation developed from Jon Fosse’s play Sa ka la. Using my own reading of the text combined with acoustic sound environments, the work translates the play’s parallel spaces—a birthday celebration and a hospital ward—into a spatial installation addressing language, fragmentation, and the tension between festivity and mortality.

Pulputin 2010
Quadraginta noctibus, also referred to as Pulputin, is a small-scale sound sculpture composed of a continuous water sound and a pulsating red light synchronized with the movement of the water. The installation unfolds as a self-sustaining system, emphasizing duration, repetition, and subtle variation rather than linear progression.
