The opening went well and a lot of people showed up even though it rained cats and dogs.
Today the finnish news on SVT talked about the exhibition! In the clip I talk about identity and my works.

The white project @ Gislaveds Konsthall

My video “The White Project” will be at display @ Gislaveds Konsthalls black box 16 sep – 8 october

“The White Project
Som privilegierad vit kvinna från väst har jag möjlighet att besöka platser där människor inte är lika lyckligt lottade som jag. Vi möts men är ändå förevigt åtskilda av det faktum att jag när som helst kan resa mig upp och åka tillbaka till mitt bekväma liv.
Hur motiverar jag min resursslösande livsstil när andra inte har råd att äta? Hur blir jag ren från skuld?
The White Project är en resa mellan två tillstånd. En kort berättelse om skulden i att ha det bra.”
