Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- I will present at the very beginning of a research process, towards the making of a new art work through which I aim to interrogate the heritage of the phonocentric Oralist tradition in the education of Deaf people. I seek to ‘read’ and deconstruct Alexander McKendrick’s film, Mandy (1952) through a co-participatory process - with Deaf people educated through Oralism and of the same generation as the child protagonist in the film - to question the advocacy of entry into the symbolic via the ‘spoken’ and ‘speech-identification’ and its relations to psychoanalytic and inter-subjective, spectator-focused film theory. Through mimetic and performative processes inherent to Oralism (such as speech-reading, lip-reading, ventriloquism, echo-practice, dubbing and lip-synchronisation) I aim to adapt Mandy - itself an adaptation of Hilda Lewis’ novel, 'The Day is Ours' (1947) – in ways that reveal the psychoanalytic dynamics of shame at play in Oralism’s delineation of Deafness as a culture and its adherence to Deafness as a disability.

In-Between: Contemporary Art in Australia. Cross-culture, Contemporaneity, Globalization
- 2011
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study emerges from the question: what is contemporary art, and mainly what criteria constitute contemporary art in a globalized art world in general? Thus, the focus of this dissertation is on the postcolonial context of Australia and the fact that the contemporary art scene in Australia is divided into Australian and Aboriginal art respectively. This is a division originating from the colonization of Australia that began in the 1770’s, resulting in an Australian art descending from a Western art practice, where there is further focus on two categories within this art. The first category is a so-called “young” Australian art created by young artists who are returning to skills of, for instance, woodcarving and bronze casting, emphasizing the techniques of creation, and the finish of the surfaces in a do-it-yourself-aesthetic. The second category is called Asian-Australian art, featuring diaspora artists, a category pointing to the fact that Australia is situated in the Asia-Pacific region and has a large Asian population. Aboriginal art, on the other hand, is regarded to be an unbroken tradition dating back some 40,000 years, featuring art created by indigenous artists living on ancestral land in remote communities, often being called traditional Aboriginal art, and city-based Aboriginal art produced by indigenous artists who have grown up and are living in Australian cities and have been educated in Western art schools. These four categories are represented by four artists whose artworks are analysed and interpreted from a cultural semiotic point of view in order to be used in practical examinations of the viability of the two theoretical concepts cross-culture and contemporaneity, as well as an investigation of whether the contemporary global art scene is truly global or still tends to emanate from a Western perspective. In this context the concept of cross-culture is examined through the history of how primitive art and primitive artists, and non-Western art and artists in general, have been apprehended, indicating that the crossing of cultures, making transformations and influences possible in the arts, have taken place from a Western perspective, thus demonstrating power relations deriving from colonization. Contemporaneity should be understood as an inquiry into how various artistic expressions with different time conceptions appear when produced simultaneously in different, closely connected, yet mutually incomparable cultures. This is art that communicates across the divide between cultures and as such grasps the driving spirit of the contemporary.

...och jag ska viska ljus i ditt öra
- 2014
-
Konstnärligt arbete (refereegranskat)abstract
- … och jag ska viska ljus i ditt öra, var en del av Kulturhuvudstadsåret 2014 och ingick i projektet Fyren, Svenska kyrkans satsning på samtidskonst där fyra konstnärer fick i uppdrag att skapa nya verk på temat ljus-mörker.… och jag ska viska ljus i ditt öra, rör sig i spänningsfältet mellan minne och glömska – ljus och mörker. Verket berör existentiella frågor kring tid och rum; tankeflöden; dynamiken mellan det ögonblickliga och oändliga. Ett verk som på bräckliga vattenytor speglar tidens gång likt molnens rörelse över himlavalvet, den eviga dansen mellan ljus och mörker – minne och glömska. Precis när droppen når vattenytan och innan spegelbilden nått glömskans stränder, just där emellan det förflutna och framtidens drömmar, ska jag viska ljus i ditt öra.Den rumsliga gestaltningen ett stilla och meditativt verk som involverade kyrkorummet och bjöd in besökaren till kontemplation.Inom ramen för projektet Fyren anordnades även samtal med konstnärerna samt att verken på olika vis involverades in i verksamheten i de olika församlingarna.

AHA! festival 2014
- 2014
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- ”Science and art” is the typical motto of a polytechnic, with the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm as a Swedish example. Only too seldom do we have occasion to ask ourselves what the words are meant to imply.The Royal Institute of Technology received its emblem in 1827. At that time, ”science” referred to theoretical knowledge, and ”art” to practical ability. Our understanding of the world around us on the one hand, our capacity to change it on the other – in both cases in a systematic or methodical fashion, and in both cases in broad generality. Today, we would rather speak of theory and practice, but the question is essentially the same: how do we go from thought to action, and how do we get back again?But the meaning of the two words was soon to change. Today, ”science” no longer refers to systematic knowledge, but rather to a highly professionalised, specialised and often technically advanced activity intended for the production of empirically secure facts. Similarly, ”art” is no longer a methodical ability, but rather a complex and autonomous activity comparable to science: the creation of images, sounds, and other forms of sensuous experience with a most immediate effect. Forms that grab hold, shake up, leave us at a loss. Experiences that make us question ourselves and the world around us.The relation between science and art has become more complex, but is just as important to attend to. Their meeting is still that of theory and practice, but also something more: a meeting of causal connections and meaningful coherences, of given conditions and unsuspected possibilities, of the order of things and our own place within it.By bringing together science and art, architecture provides an ideal playing field for such a confrontation. This is why the Department of Architecture at the Chalmers University of Technology has initiated the AHA! Festival, October 21–23, 2014 that, during three days of lectures, workshops, conversations, exhibitions, concerts, performances, and mingles, will offer thought-provoking experiences, hands-on surprises, itinerant perspectives, and savoury ideas. In this way the festival welcomes students and researches at Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg to turn the searchlight onto the relation between two different– but equally important – human activities.

Editorial : reconsidering the Carpet Paradigm: carpet as material, motif and medium
- 2014
-
Ingår i: Konsthistorisk Tidskrift. - : Taylor & Francis. - 0023-3609 .- 1651-2294. ; 83:3, s. 207-210

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- In this special issue of Konsthistorisk tidskrift some implications of reconsidering the so-called carpet paradigm are persued. This can provide for new angles not only when it comes to research on the Oriental carpet and work on the carpet as motif and medium but also for demonstrating in a further sense how the carpet – and research on it – can be used as a model to understand art and art histories. The American art historian Joseph Masheck introduced this term in his influential article ‘The Carpet Paradigm" (1976). Here it includes analysing the carpet as motif as well as medium. It investigates how the carpet functions as a model for a better understanding of the image in general. Of special importance is the fact that the carpet paradigm forms a crossroads for research on images, textiles, literature, decorative arts, iconography, gender, ornament and cultural transfers–to name but a few. The lines of investigation are interconnecting.
