‧͙⁺˚*･༓☾True Devotion☽༓･*˚⁺‧͙
I woke up lying in my own piss, trembling with the vivid vision of a dream. A divine creature, so elegant and glamorous, untouched by the poors and the disappointments of this world. A human so beautiful, with such radiance.
As she graced me with her presence, I trembled and understood, my fragile masculinity had halted before her. It was as if I were standing before God herself. She kissed me on the forehead, on my bald spot, greeting me and looking at me with love. She said" that’s hot". I was surrounded by her glitter and tasted her beautiful wisdom. I cried like I was six years old again. All my pores and channels opened, dormant no longer. She had temporarily freed me.
I revoke the ugliness, the unwanted poors, the thick shadows of this world. Your beauty is the altar where my sickness spills. My chest is open. My bed is piss-wet. Im ur devotie, Paris Hilton<3
My Body My Flesh : Potatoes
Potato this, potato that.
Comfort carb. Reliable starch.
A monoculture you can trust.
This exhibition distills the potato into its essence through time.
Through DIY alchemical processes, its juice is slowly drawn out and gathered into vessels.
A reliquary of rot.
An ongoing experiment in decomposition, control, and transformation.
At night, the bureaucrats can be seen roaming the first floor.
Thanks @kunstsenter for photos documentation and the exhibition space!

Tåkesluker / Nimbus Samler – skulpturen fanger atmosfæren i rommet og lar den kondenseres til dråper. Kobberrør inni og utenfor avkjøles med kjøleveske i et lukket system, nedkjølt av fryser for å skape en subtil temperaturforskjell mellom skulptur og rom. Støpte bronseøser gir mulighet til å smake på vannet som samles over tid - en fysisk kontakt med rommets skjulte essens.
En æra er over, og dette var mitt siste verk fra KHiO. Nå har jeg inntatt Bergen for en master, og jeg vil delta i separasjonsbevegelsen for å gjøre Vestlandet til et eget land.

"Harvest"
Sengfjæring, gulrøtter og elektrisk gjerde
Gullerotsuppe var lenge min go to for å imponere mine venner men disse gulrøttene holdt knapt 2 dager utafor kjøleskapet, så man får nøye seg med bildene av da de var ferske.
Bronze project in bratti. 🥉
"Be wary of the berars of broken gifts and false promises." Long prosess doing bronze I think but ultimately worth it
