Information about the artist / the group

I’m a documentarian and Internet storyteller working at the intersection of multiple inherited narratives and cultures. These lineages draw me to stories of marginalised communities, particularly in a region of the world I’ve long been captivated by. What began as a personal project exploring Nordic histories and cultures has evolved into a broader documentation of racism, identity, colonial legacy, social inequalities and amplifying voices often overlooked in the world’s most “idyllic” regions. I bring 18 years of creative development experience, from Red Bull, MTV and HBO, with a steadfast commitment to independent storytelling that safeguards truth and integrity. I hope to challenge the myth of perfection, and remind audiences that even the brightest landscapes can cast shadows.

Program during Konstrundan

For Konstrundan, I’ll be screening a selection of my video works exploring identity, memory, and the narratives we inherit. The pieces move between research, reflection, and lived experience, touching on themes of belonging, cultural mythmaking, and colonial histories in a Nordic context. This is an open viewing space. Drop in, stay awhile, and engage at your own pace. The work is ongoing, evolving through dialogue, curiosity, and community.
