I make sculptures that combine figures and objects in surreal assemblages resembling ‘characters’ in theatrical tableaux – that are often animated by synchronised lights and sound or performance. I also make prints which often function like proposals or sketches for my installations.

My work has been shown at Casa Capitao, CCA Wiznavod (2021), Tate Modern (2019), The Bloomsbury Theatre (2016), and Transmission Gallery (2011) among others. I have won public funding from the City of Copenhagen Visual Arts Council (2022), the Danish Arts Council (2014 and 2015), and Creative Scotland (2012).
