Publications and books:
2019: ‘Långa linjer’, a photo book/catalogue about expired materials, my fascination about ageing materials and how they bring me back to other eras simply by handling them, touch them, smell them and watch the results. Produced at Valand, available in one copy.
2017: Two publications produced in a publication course at Valand Academy; ‘Bilder av barn/Främmande land’, about children and thoughts about them and their world, and ‘MM’, about death – a kind of prelude to a coming, larger work about death, inspired by the death of my mother in 2016.
