My approach

Direct statements push audiences away, and endless screens make everything look the same. Irony, the grotesque and the absurd work differently: they invite the viewer to notice something strange in the familiar and reach the meaning on their own.I take everyday things — a browser game, a plate, a children’s toy, a truck — and shift them just enough to start a conversation about freedom, control, memory and the digital world we live in.

MEME-BRANE.ZIP

Problem

We live between two windows: the browser and the apartment. Freedom online feels endless, yet memes and interfaces quietly shape how we see everything.

Idea

Treat the computer screen and the architectural window as two screens colliding, and turn the exhibition into the membrane between them.

Solution

A spectral research exhibition where meme culture and interface elements take over the physical space, so visitors walk inside a total shell of perception

SIGNALS

Problem

Everyday fear rarely looks dramatic. It shows up as small habits of self-control and the frozen feeling that «it will always be like this»

Idea

Make the visitor part of the system that controls them

Solution

Interactive and passive-interactive installations that react to visitors or wait for them to act, adding up to one statement about hopelessness and self-surveillance

DALNOBOY. With God on Any Road

Problem

The long-haul trucker is a familiar figure, but the subculture is usually seen through old stereotypes, not as it lives today in a digital world

Idea

Bring the road into the gallery through the trucker’s own unit of space: the container

Solution

Three thematic container blocks, each showing a different side of the subculture through three-dimensional art objects and poster works

NO CONNECTION

Problem

When the internet drops, a pixel dinosaur is all that’s left on screen

Idea

What if this small comfort game left the screen?

Solution

Chrome Dino becomes a live action, its runs and jumps turned into a route through the city

REALITY INDIGESTION

Problem

People live behind walls they build themselves or that society builds for them

Idea

Channel surfing as looking into different flats of one building

Solution

A video made of fragments of lives full of conflicts, failures and attempts to connect

OB (SERVING)

Problem

Surveillance has reached our most private routines

Idea

Give the plate eyes

Solution

Security cameras applied to dishes
