    Like birdwatchers, we observe similarities and connections in  fragments brought together to read the  landscape. Oides describes a thing that resembles something else, as in the scientific name of the Reed Warbler: Locustella luscinioides. We move in the reed and listen for its nightingale-like song but find something else. Quiet objects carry traces of their origin and the energy that once was – the symbol of the wavy horizontal line appears and is connected to the elements which leave traces of waves in snow, stone, shells, bone and sand. Beach combed lava from a recent Icelandic eruption floated on the waves of the salty sea and landed on the Bohuslän coast. In our hands we are holding the same materia and energy which in another time created the stone on which we stand.

    Jordskärning (Earth cut) starts with the ever-changing material evolution and questions what is visible or hidden and where you find landscape. Sculptures in cement, stone, bronze, aluminum, ceramics and glass take place in the room and shares a dialogue with each other, the subterreanean and deep time. There is an intrinsic narrative present in materials with a long history of geological transformations and transitions which now find themselves in a human production cycle and in direct relation to our own bodily and existential movements.

    Art Lab Gnesta
    Commissioned project

    A site-specific project examining Holmen in Gnesta and it’s adjacent landscape. We made a raft from local timber to expand our reach. The off-cuts were burned to make tar which we used to seal the wood. Material change is constant. Floating on the surface, measuring the depth, marking the level where the shore used to be and wondering where it’s going. The landscape will never again be the same as right now. We sewed work uniforms and a flag/sail and dyed the fabric with our food waste. We painted the landscape with clay dyed with iron oxide and turmeric to direct the view. Rocks were reformed and placed back where we found them. We left our marks and became part of the movement.

    The project was presented at Holmenfestivalen on 17/9-22 and documented in a publication.

    Brick debris, iron, oil pastel
    50x490 cm

    Gotland och Bangka Island utanför Sumatra i Indonesien delar, förutom att de är öar, också rollen som brytningsplatser för material som den globala industrin är beroende av. En tredjedel av världens tennbrytning pågår på Bangka: tennet är avgörande för utvecklingen inom exempelvis artificiell intelligens och förnybar energi. På Gotland pågår sedan en tid tillbaka en strid om de ekologiska konsekvenserna av kalkstensbrytning för cement- och betongproduktion, som fått den svenska regeringen att agera.

    Från kalksten till cement och tillbaka rör sig installationen Teknofossil (2020) av Sara Söderberg, som fyller stora utställningshallen och bäst upplevs barfota. Verket sammankopplar oss med de 450 miljoner år gamla fossiler i bergarten som nu oåterkalleligt upplöses och genom betongen förvandlas till homogena byggnader i den moderna världen. I verket Löst material (2022) har konstnären staplat tegelrester från Sveriges sista, numera nedlagda, tegelbruk i en ryggradslik konstruktion. I Riar Rizaldis videoverk Kasiterit (2019) möter vi berättaren Natasha – en solcellsdriven AI-röst – och närmar oss hennes ursprung genom en sorts släktforskning. Här guidas vi genom tennbrytningens framväxt på Bangka genom naturantropologiska, geopolitiska och värdeteoretiska perspektiv.

    Ekofeministen Val Plumwood har kallat platser som dessa för skuggplatser. Genom den globala kapitalismen har de varit med att bygga kroppar och liv långt bort från sina geografiska lägen, och är på så sätt platser för gemensamt ansvar. Vad innebär det att upprätthålla kontakten med ursprunget bakom de vardagsmaterial som möjliggör ett högteknologiskt samhälle? Och samtidigt ta ansvar för den påverkan dessa utvinningsprocesser har på människors och andra livsformers arbete och agens?

    Välkommen in i en utställning som reflekterar kring tennets och kalkstenens relation till djup tid, samtida kroppar och en möjlig framtid av ny omsorg.

    Malmberget
    Public art project

    A site-specific, self-initiated project in Malmberget, funded by Statens the Swedish arts council. I was interested in how material was valued, used and wasted while this evacuated town was being demolished to make space for the expanding iron ore mining. Most of the people had moved away and the buildings where taken down one by one. I invited artist Jenny Käll and architect Malin Rönnerfalk to an artist-in-residence in a former school where we lived and worked. LKAB gave us all-access to buildings and fenced-off sites.

    Four public installations where exhibited in July/August 2020 and the project was documented in a publication.

    Public commission
    Concrete, stell frame
    4x2,5 m

    A biological, turned geological, evolution irreversibly altered by human interaction. The unique 450 million year old relics within the limestone blocks mined at the Cementa quarry on Gotland are transformed into a homogenous powder, cement, to build the modern world with a massive impact. Limestone fossils, to concrete, to techno fossils.

    The installation of a cast concrete relief was temporarily installed on Swedenborgsgatan from June-August during the summer exhibition Levande Stockholm.

  • Mossutställningar - Konstnärliga avsmyckningar
    Norra Djurgårdsstaden
    Public commission

    A site-specific project looking at the newly developed neighborhood Norra Djurgårdsstaden and its self-proclaimed sustainable approach. A collaboratively built installation using handmade bricks from local clay, recycled bricks and altered bricks from Sweden’s last brick factory (closed in 2020). The work was produced within the project Konstnärliga avsmyckningar - jord. Jord Rum, a window installation with 1 ton of earth at subway station Gärdet.

    Site-specific installation
    Sunds grustag
    Clay, sand, stone, timber, iron, earthenware

    I built a public sauna as a suggested destination to share for anyone interested in a former stone quarry. I wanted to question the idea of ownership and challenge the experience of spaces we share and meet in: who makes them, for whom, using what techniques and what materials. Made by hand using mostly material readily available in and around the quarry; clay, sand, stone, gravel, hay, manure and timber.
