Artist statement
Interventions in the institutionalised everyday.
By investigating educational, corporate and public settings, I critically engage withissues rooted in the institutional context. I keep looking beyond the veneer of how we manouver to expose and reference behaviour, routines and decision making.
My practice reflects on mechanisms that underlie the institutionalised everyday. Authority, discipline and hierarchies that are embedded throughout; linguistically constituted and collectively recognised. Both, having lived in a socialist system and worked in corporate environments makes me particularly aware and responsive to those patterns.
Working across media and functional spaces my site-related interventions and performative sculptures come inseparably with a layer of humour.
