Place as Matter - Rejmyre, Sweden 2009

My work in this workshop has been about understanding and process. To find ways I can use place as matter. I started with making a monument by asking a question in public space, then using the existing aesthetics of communication [public notice boards] to create a place for open questioning.

We were also in the glass workshop and trying to figure out the relation between time and transformation through material. The glass work was a collaborative project. It was very interesting to work together. We seemed to form a three-armed body; me, Stine and the place, Rejmyre, that made the work. I still haven’t really figured that one out though.
