Situational works
These works operate through spatial conditions in which appearance, movement and relation shape meaning. They do not function as autonomous objects but as situations in which elements position themselves, shift or align, allowing presence to be split, redirected or extended across space.
Situations in Space
The following works operate on the scale of a situation rather than a room. They activate space through shifts in position, time and perception. Meaning arises in the relation between the viewer, the spatial setting and the photographic trace of another moment. These micro‑installations do not function as objects or images, but as spatial situations in which presence is split, doubled or redirected.
A photograph of an earlier moment is fixed onto the mirror. The space repeats itself at another time, producing a doubled condition where temporal and spatial layers intersect.

Hair, self portrait, 2009
The photo functions as an image-object within the Personal Space Art Projects. Originally taken by my young child in the bathroom after showering, it is rooted in a specific spatial and bodily situation. The image has been used in multiple interventions and installations, operating as a situational element rather than a standalone photograph.

situational work
photographic trace, mirrored table arrangement, spatial setting
A situation exists only within the image: two mirrored table arrangements, a shared granular structure between puzzle pieces and surface, and a tonal shift that produces a doubled spatial condition.

Situational Installations
The following works originate from situational encounters but take form as installations. They construct spatial constellations in which objects, images or video elements align to create a situation rather than represent one. Meaning emerges through appearance, relation and the subtle shifts between elements.
Pillowslip
In video installation ‘Pillowslip’, the work originates from an encounter on Xiamen Beach, where a pink pillowcase with a heart motif and pieces of polystyrene (EPS) foam drifted in the waves. The installation brings these elements together as a spatial situation, where the video and the collected “floating rocks” form a constellation rather than a representation. The work reflects how meaning can arise through appearance, movement and the shifting relation between things.

In The Address, the work originates from a situational encounter in public space. The installation translates that situation into a sculptural form, where the photograph and the table construct a micro‑situation rather than represent it. The work reflects how meaning can arise from the positioning of bodies, objects and context.
