In these works I have explored how I can relate to my environment through my daily practices of teaching, eating, animating etc. I begun the project by improvising lectures for various audiences I wanted to have input from. I have lectured to all possible enteties in the ecosystem I am a part of, from blueberries to colleagues to films. Every time something new continues to take shape. The exposition include essays, paintings and animations.

Great Sweetness is a written companion of the artistic research project Night of Dark Angels, which investigates how erotic mysticism, queer vampire narratives, and somatic performance can function as modes of embodied knowledge. The text explores “great sweetness” as a recurring motif in hagiographic writings of mystics and in queer vampire literature, where ecstatic pleasure, abjection, and desire exceed normative frameworks of sexuality, subjectivity, and transcendence. Drawing on Lacanian jouissance and Julia Kristeva’s concept of abjection, the research approaches great sweetness as an excessive affective state—simultaneously pleasurable and disturbing—that destabilizes boundaries between self and other, sacred and profane, human and non-human. Methodologically, the text operates through a situated, phenomenological, and autoethnographic approach, treating writing not as representation but as a performative practice that accompanies and informs artistic experimentation. Great Sweetness functions as a conceptual and affective archive that feeds directly into the development of experimental somatic LARP (Live Action Role Play) scores within Night of Dark Angels. This LARP experiment translates textual research into collective, embodied situations, where figures of mystics and queer vampires are enacted as tools for exploring vulnerability, monstrosity, care, and resistance. Rather than aiming at theoretical closure, the text proposes great sweetness as a mode of embodied thinking—one that foregrounds process, relationality, and affect, and that opens artistic research toward antifascist, feminist, and queer forms of collective imagination and practice.

The Arrangement of Objects examines the intersection of functionality, aesthetics, and artistic practice through experiments with glass and metal. Central to the project is the notion of burden, understood both physically, as pressure or weight, and metaphorically, as imprint, deformation, or trace. This theme is expressed in layers, grooves, and perforations that evoke landscapes or the life cycles of objects. The work situates itself between design and fine art, emphasizing material research as a driver of innovation and interdisciplinarity. It also highlights the role of conceptual thinking and autoethnographic reflection, integrating personal experience into the creative process. Through layering and transformation, the project questions the porous boundary between utilitarian and artistic objects while expanding the expressive vocabulary of glass and metal.

In recent years, it has become a real possibility for artists to engage with spatial sound technologies that allow for movement beyond the stereocentric paradigm. Thus, spatialization has mostly lent itself to avant-garde traditions, electronic music, and sound art. However, the rapid advancements of technologies have called for artists, songwriters, and musicians of all genres to contribute to this development not only by following and fitting into these new formats but also by shaping them through artistic engagements with them. When considering sound in space as a new component in the music creation toolbox, a new dimension is added that provides creative and performative potentials of situating songwriting and music creation within a spatial sound practice. Beyond the literal, what kinds of metaphorical or emotional resonance can emerge from the vibration between various bodies, such as composers, performers, and audiences, as well as bodies of sound, technologies, interfaces, instruments, scene, setting, speakers, aesthetics, and orientations? Voicing Spatial Songs was conducted by avant-pop duo SØSTR, which consists of sisters Louise Lind Foo and Sharin Foo.

This essay proposes the “Erased Museum” as both a critical framework and an institutional ethics: a museum that recognizes loss as its primary collection and disappearance as a mode of curation. Drawing from Absential Aesthetics, it argues that destruction—by fire, flood, war, neglect, theft, or obsolescence—does not terminate cultural meaning but reorganizes it into a second, invisible archive composed of voids, residues, and public conscience. Through case studies and touchstones including the Library of Alexandria, Brazil’s National Museum (2018), the Mosul Museum (2015), and architectural and curatorial practices that preserve wounds rather than conceal them (e.g., post-damage restorations and void-centered memorial architectures), the essay reframes conservation as a dialogue with entropy rather than a fantasy of permanence. It also traces contemporary artistic strategies that curate absence directly—fabricated archives, missing inventories, empty frames, restitution bureaucracies—showing how loss can become documentation rather than mere lament. The work concludes by extending the ethics of disappearance to the digital domain, where decay occurs without smoke, and by proposing “transparent loss protocols” as a future-facing curatorial responsibility.
