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.

Topographies of the Obsolete is an artistic research project conceived in 2012 by
 University of Bergen Professors Neil Brownsword and Anne Helen Mydland,
in collaboration with six European HEI’s and the British Ceramics Biennial.
Emerging through two phases (2012-15; 2015-2020) it has to date engaged
ninety-seven interdisciplinary artists, scholars, cultural commentators and
students from thirteen countries. It has transformed participants’ practices, with
works originating out of the initial research being celebrated on an international
platform. Topographies of the Obsolete has received funding from a variety of
institutions, alongside its core support from the Norwegian Artistic Research
Programme (2013-15 & 2015-17), whose peer review system (2015) rated it
as ‘exemplary… strengthening artistic research and its scope beyond potential
communities of practitioners/researchers’. The project explores the landscape and associated histories of post-industry, with an initial emphasis on Stoke-on-Trent, a world-renowned ceramics capital that bears evidence of fluctuations in global fortunes.

Olskroksmotet Blues är den avslutande delen i mitt autoetnografiska projekt som pågick i olika former mellan 2014-2021, och där jag bland annat publicerat två artiklar (Kroon 2015 och 2016). RC expositionen består av tre delarbeten - arkivblad, arkivmönster och göteborg grid – jämte bakgrund och teori & metod. Utifrån min historia som fosterbarn söker jag fånga såväl mina egna erfarenheter och uttryck, som att sätta dessa i ljuset av större samhälleliga skeenden. Olskroksmotet Blues var också del av Mikrohistoriers fysiska grupputställning på Konstfack, Stockholm i september 2021.

This article explores monotheistic religions as powerful linguistic and social structures that function through a mechanism of collective delusion. Drawing on Jacques Lacan’s structuralist insights, the text argues that these faiths are not based on objective history but are fictions codified long after the events they describe.
