" The bowler training in the garden"  A character that I shape from my artistic process. I want to strike and use the whole of my body to be more in focus. My body will take me to the strike I want to. With practice and action I am empowering and anchoring my decision of direction.

Outdoor performance 

I was reading people that entered the container in city center Stockholm

Enter

This performance is based on the personal story and its communication. The same day before the presentation, I led a workshop in performance art that lasted 2.5 hours. We worked with the personal object and the personal story both individually but also in relation to the other objects and stories. I gave the participants a structure were they could within improvisation fill in with their own story in the form of words and movements from a poetic aspect.

An performance inspired by the love to my colleges at Venice International Performance Art Festival

Open my heart

 This performance is about the roles of dominance and submissive and the relation between them. It is about our idea about these roles and how we can be forced to or willing to take part of. Consciously or unconsciously.  We meet these roles in people around us in our daily lives. Our politicians, our friends, our family members, our lovers, in our children and in ourselves.  My intention with this performance is to show aspects of power and how this can be affecting our relations and how our idea about submissive and dominance confuses us valuing in good and bad.  Let the re-evaluation start here.
