I am a Swedish visual artist, born 1957 in Sweden, but based in Copenhagen. I use drawing, photo, video and methods of pure play on the one hand, and durational strategies for critical intervention and participation, on the other.

My work intervenes with the logic of a place. This also means, that the place and its locals, professionals and institutions also intervenes with me and  the art project, making it an unpredictable reciprocal and simultaneous ping-pong process.

The discursive platform that eventually might grow out of this exchange, aims at cultivating an existing local agency and/ or improving conditions for local action with point of departure in co-formulated urban imaginaries concerning the site.

The collaborative side of my work also comprises events and exhibitions with colleagues, co-curating of the artist-run research platforms such as TAPKO 1991–2005 and LOKALE 2018-. I headed a reorganization of one of Europe´s oldest artist run public galleries, OVERGADEN in Copenhagen, Denmark, from 1996–2002, when it became an Institute of Contemporary Art.

I have served as member of the committee for Art in Public Spaces at the Danish National Arts Foundation from 2008-2010, and as a member of the Board of Kunsthal Århus from 2017-2019. Currently, I am member oif the Board of Fabrikken, in Copenhagen and a Senior Lecturer at Academy Valand at Gothenburg University, in Sweden. I regularly engage in the public discourse on the role of visual art in relation to the wider contemporary society, and have produced and contributed to research projects within this field.
