Bodily Space / Spacial Body

- Wool from our neighbours sheep

The work consists of four hanging tapestrys that both function as walls and at the same time as body jewelry. All materials can be seen as skins, at the same time they are used as building materials (except for the rowan berries that only relate to me, my name and family history). The work consists of a performative part and a wall-fixed part.

It was shown as part of Box Summerstudio at the Röhsska Museum in Gothenburg at Black Box, Oslo, as part of Pluss Pluss 2019 and at Tromsø Kunstforening as part of Open Out
