THE TRAVELOGUE SERIES

The Travelogues is a series of photos reconsidering the concept of exploration, and imperial conquest. I combine panoramic photographs I have taken while traveling over the last 5 years with close up photography of the female body. By doing this I internalise the documentation of my journeys, while reflecting on 18th and 19th Century travelogues, typically written by missionaries and explorers traversing Africa.
This series was made in collaboration with Alex MacNaughton.

PHOTOGRAPHY

UNTITLED LABOUR SERIES

In this series I was focusing on the compression of everyday labour on the human body, and playing with the intersection of the body and the labour it is performing. Each of the three images, presents labour that many Kenyans have to perform daily due to the lack of infrastructure in Kenya.
This series was created in collaboration with Tom Vandas
Workshops

WORKSHOPS

AHWAK RUNAWAY

This film was made at the Ölands folkhögskola during a two-day animation workshop. The students chose Kanye West's #Runaway film to work with. We selected a sequence and I gave each student one second (25 frames) to reinterpret in any way they wanted (painting, scratching, collage, digital etc

​

During the workshop, one of the girls began to play a song from Syria on her phone; Jamal Slitine's Hobbi Lak, which we adopted as the soundtrack for the visual piece.

​

It fit beautifully.

Thank you so very much, Malin Lindmark Vrijman and Mathieu Vrijman for inviting me to be part of your school for a couple of days, and supporting us throughout. Thank you to Ölands Folkhögskola for allowing a space in which your students can experiment freely and make discoveries every day.
