Artist Bio:
I am a Swedish visual artist based in a rural part of Co Mayo, Ireland who works primarily with photography and the moving image. I completed a BA (Hon) degree in Fine Art; Photography, Video & Film at LSAD in Limerick 2018. Since then, I have worked on various projects and have exhibited my work in several locations throughout Ireland and Sweden. I have also curated And This is Where We Meet, a group exhibition with Irish based visual artists at Livestock Music & Art Festival, Aughrim, 2022 and 2023.
My practice focuses primarily on the subject of nature, in combination with identity, mental health and the connection between nature and humans. I look at the disconnect and the dysfunctional, what is unseen and obscured; the subtle. Womanhood and eco-feminism are important elements in my work.
There is a play with physicality in my imagery - I use my body to challenge myself; push limits to observe what the body can perform; and how it in turn, reacts to the natural elements. Themes such as embodiment of place, belonging and displacement are important within my work, and the performative interaction with nature.
