"Jag vill bo där jag är saknad"

I invite people to walk with me, as I carry a ceramic backpack oven. The oven is lit and used to bake bread as we walk togheter. The bread is then shared in a communal act.

"Hohlraum"

During the Angewandte Festival 2023 I walked around in Vienna, making molds of cracks and cavities in the city.


These were then made into ceramic cups used in this tea ceremony event at Paulusplatz 5.


The participants each choose a ceramic cup and were served tea.


The cup was offered as a gift to the participant.

"Gömböc"

A two-dimensional object cannot have lower than four equilibrium points, four positions where the object is at rest and the external forces are zero.


This was also assumed to be true for three-dimensional objects.


In 1995, a Russian mathematician named Vladimir Arnold proposed the possible existence of an impossible object.


11 years later, Gábor Domokos discovers the "Gömböc", the shape that always strives for equilibrium.


Here is my endeavor to assume this form.

With a converted library cart i entered the hall and proceeded to make apple and cinnamon tea using a camping kitchen burner.


The participants each choose a ceramic cup and were served tea.

"Tea Ceremony"

Joint performance with me and Yasuyo Tatebe. The ceremony was held on top of a mountain in Bergen.


The participants each choose a cup and then approached the table were tea was being served.


The ceramic cups were made and glazed to reflect the surrounding enviroment and labeled with the word "Tea" or a drawing of a teapot.


Together we spent a moment, enjoying the tea and the place. The participants were offered to keep the cup as a gift.
