Artist

If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?

Installation, Sculpture

I am...

not one, but two and severel more....
For the past 5-6 years I been working collaboratively with artist Randi Joergensen under the name "Randi & Katrine"

About my artwork

Randi & Katrine works with sculptural objects, architectures and images in the borderland between the natural and the manmade. The homely interior, the house, the home, the retreat, not to mention the puzzling similarities and convergences between the bourgeois theatre, luksusliners,shopping arcades and the superficial world of the theme park are recurrent thematic references in their work. They simultaneously widening and disturb the mechanisms by which these manmade and often prefabricated in-between worlds create orientation and meaning in our everyday lives. By means of objects, images and spaces that resist the reassuring, spontaneous categorisations of the outside world Randi & Katrine manage to develop the everyday fictions into the odd and surreal.
They build up a series of universes that neither have a clear source, nor a recipient; universes, that constantly shift appearance. To occupy Randi & Katrine's installations as a spectator - and to let oneself be taken over by them - does not only mean to surrender oneself to a closely orchestrated sequence, which will most likely upset what we expect of a given space, but also to be given the freedom and the opportunity to build and narrate oneself. That chance ought to be seized. Otherwise others will do it for us.
