My solo show Please, Control opens at Kunstgarasjen, 6 October 6–9 p.m., and is then open every Thursday-Sunday until 5 November 2023.
I’ve written two texts for this exhibition, a short text and a long text. You can read the one or the other, or both, or none. You find them here.
I spent two weeks in June at Halden Bookworks, working on a letterpress book which is to be part of my exhibition Please, Control in October 2023.
I have reworked three copies of my first published book (“Den sanne horisonten”), mostly by removing the words by different methods, which has turned the books into artists’ books. These new versions will part of the project Inexistent Books VI (link).

In the latest episode of Kunstpodden, “Kunstbøker”, Cecilie Tyri Holt, Hanne Skogvang Stork and Tommy Olsson talk about my book Sifonofor + two (other) art book projects. (Olsson says, among other things, that reading my poems is like being suddenly slapped in the face – or being in a room with a viper.)
The audio is from a critics’ panel at B*stard Art Book Fair at Oppland Art Center in early June 2022.
An ongoing project, a sort of work in progress of work in progress, i.e. a notebook where I copy my notebooks from the last years by embroidering them, will be shown at Codex Polaris’ table at CHART Art Fair, Copenhagen August 26-28.
