I am a visual artist working primarily with textiles, collage and drawing. My practice is rooted in collected and self-produced materials, which I deconstruct and reassemble in new configurations to examine the relationship between personal experiences and collective narratives.

I live and work in Fredrikstad, Norway, and I studied at the Oslo National Academy of the Arts and the University of Oslo.

In addition to my artistic practice, I work with art mediation, writing and commissioned visual communication.
