Some of the reoccurring themes in my works are physical boundaries and material limitations as well as violence in personal-sexual and socio-political contexts.

As someone who grew up in the nineties, dramatic technological changes unfurled simultaneously with my personal advances towards the brink of manhood. These parallel occurrences - sexual yearnings, manual labor and mechanical innovations - are interlocked together.

Udstillingen er aktuel fra fredag d. 8 februar til d. 22 februar
