b. 1996, Copenhagen, Denmark
Based in Glasgow, UK
Through weaving and photography, my work involves processes of editing and translation. I explore what gets lost and found in the translation from one image to another. Using material that is found online, I weave what I find anew in different patterns, while holding a tension between coded languages and daily details. By removing visual information, my work maintains an intimacy while not revealing too much.
My recent work focusses on captioning and subtitling as types of alternative text. The act of weaving the captions by hand allows for latent meanings to emerge, while questioning the dominant speeds in which images circulate.
