Another Kind of High

In my graduation work, scale and size play a prominent role. My work appears in four different rooms, as well as outside between the two buildings of OK26 and OK74. In one room you will find three paper pedestals. A fourth one is brought in the room at times as a prop when I perform ‘Another Kind of High’, a lecture on the ability of space to transform according to our needs. The other three support three groups of small, fragile sculptures made of paper that depict a scenery of love, one of a party interaction, and one of a solitary man smoking on an armchair, next to an empty chair. In another room is placed my papier-mache sculpture of a big, pink, hairy foot.

This sculpture is called ‘Who is the monster now?’. Large scale appears again in the auditorium of OK26, where a big chair made of wood serves as a reading spot for people to take their time reading the four books that I made: ‘The Minotaur Poems’, ‘Standing Still Until The Mouse Leaves’, ‘Do You Have Any Questions’, and ‘Ongoing Monologue’. In a corridor in the back, an audio piece plays every hour with a recording of my sleep talk. In it I say the sentence ‘I was about to dream of you’. The two buildings are connected by two 25 m long, 10 cm high banners that showcase an evocative text about rain.
