This artwork is a bright explosion of colours on a 80 x 80 cm canvas (depth: 2.5 cm). "Tripping Beauty" talks about addiction and how it makes you feel your emotions and your body. Addiciton is a biopsychosocial disorder characterized by compulsive engagement in rewarding stimuli despite adverse consequences People experiencing addiction are prone to cycles of relapse and remission. This means they may cycle between intense and mild use. Addiction is too sweet to let go of it but overtime it will destroy you. This painting talks about what addiction makes you feel. But the viewer can see that the face of the person turnt into a mask because being addicted means letting go of your self control and blurring your thoughts.

Tripping Beauty

"Target" is talking about the power and vulnerability of beeing seen as a women in today´s society. Being female is a double-edged sword which cuts apart what women should be and what women really are. Women are strong but are seen as weak so often. Women can define their own life but are opressed too much. Women can protect theirselves but are seen as vulnerable targets.

This work is about experiences of intersection where different states overlap yet one arrives at a turning point, a decisive moment..

L.A. Driving

Inspired by Michelangelo Antonioni’s Blow-up and the ideas of Vilém Flusser, this work questions the relation between photography & reality. Taking a photograph always means to choose, to take something out of its context. But how true stays a photograph when you zoom in and all forms and shapes slowly become indistinct? Dimensions are lost and texture becomes more prominent than the photographed scene. This in turn leads to the question of what we regard as real.

The series was shown at Spéos Gallery, Paris, in October 2009.

BlowUp

The installation consists of two works (”L.A. Driving” and “Stop&Go”) that have been created independently from each other in 2001 in Los Angeles. Both are impressions and reflections of the city,  both have been recorded out of driving cars. When we found out about each other’s work it was clear that we want to present them together. Following the ideas of Vilém Flusser to take out the image of it’s common context to create a new form of dialogue, we decided quickly that a perfect place for the installation would be VALIE EXPORT’s Transparent Cube in Vienna. This glass cube is located under the bridge of an aerial railway station (Josefstädtergürtel), enframed by two big streets with a lot of traffic - a transitory place inbetween movement and standstill. The cube reflects the city surrounding it. By projecting the photographs and the video on it we created an imaginary space with the parameters light and time that merged with reality and that invited people to interact with the installation and thus to become part of it themselves.
