Abstract [en]
A complementary text to the masters project SET/SÄTT that includes an exhibition and an image-based essay in the format of a bound artist book.
The physical essay is made up of several risograph printed pages depicting images of the components that that compose SET/SÄTT. The pages are bound together so that it folds out in the fashion of a map or a gift card. Although, the book folds out into a myriad of interconnecting folds that takes some time and careful planning to expose. Every edition of the physical essay is unique.
Abstract [en]
SET/SÄTT is a “plastic” sculpture, malleable and subject to its surroundings. It consists of a collection of components with the same prerequisites, but whose combination is continually restructured in relation to its environment. Materially the work consists of wooden sticks with accompanying joints that lock into each other using tension in the fiber. My method is inspired by practices such as shipbuilding, woodworking, video game design, concretism and nomadic esthetics with the ambition to create a tool. An instrument that allows the user to quickly and with ease draw up lines within a space, like a three dimensional form of sketching. During the master exhibition, a series of sculptures were constructed, reconstructed and deconstructed in between open hours.
