Curriculum Vitae
In my art I create scenes or spaces that attends to create an opening or a crack to expierience something that attends to link us with the natural environment itself or to the meaning strucktures culture concerned has build from the expiriences of the surrounding world and has found worthy of remembering and passing on.
My methods have been linked to ethnographical approach. I study old and new stories and visual representations produced on the subject, interview people and reseasch museum collections and archives. I collect material from certain issue or an area and combine historical material with todays phenomenons in order to create a story or a scene.
The artwork takes form in installations combining sculptural elements, digital prints, sound and video. I work with the possibilities in the given space, in or outside.
