In my artistic practice I challenge the traditional western notion of reality. With the help of physical objects and digital media, such as VR, 3D-printing and photography, I question the concepts, words and constructed contradictions that makes up the foundation of our western world view. I am interested in opening up to new ways of seeing reality by deconstructing the difference between outer and inner, the subject and the object, nature and culture, materiality and immateriality, matter and consciousness.
