While seeking to expand the meaning and experience of ordinary functional artifacts, LOOP explores the interactive potential of the inverted vessel and the chain. From an audio quality perspective and put in a performative context, I've deepened my fascination for compositions of many similar parts creating a whole. The repetition and rhythm create an inconstant or fickle scenario inviting rearrangement, rediscovery, and open-ended play with our perception and imagination.
The project was made during a residency at Guldagergaard - International Research Ceramic Center in Denmark, with support from The Swedish Arts Grants Committee.

The installation is based on the idea of the hallways’ act in a home as an intermezzo - a short dramatic, musical, or light characterful performance inserted between the acts of a drama or opera. With a scenographic view and a conceptual approach, I have explored the hallways’ components in correlation with our subconscious routines within that room. The project aims to discover everyday life choreographies with the material world and challenge the hallways’ practical tone. The wooden and ceramic objects are created with a focus on sensory experiences and particularly their sounds, which together play the hallways’ symphony.
The project was made in collaboration with choreographer and dancer Ida Kjällquist.
