Four Japanese Castles


On my trips to Japan I noticed something peculiar. A type of architecture kept popping up. Castle-like structures in the image of a Disney movie or a plastic toy store.

I show four of these structures. These photographs are followed up with a text questioning our perception on reality. Both language and photography can deceive us in very similar ways. Our perception of language might also tell us something about our view on the world and the people who live in it.

The odd selection of RISO colours; Fluorescent Orange, Green and Black, add to the surreal nature of the pictures while still staying somewhat true to the colours of these architectural wonders.

Empathy and Marxism

Critiques on magnification and iconification in mass politics.

In this installation piece, I try to show what happens when theory and ideas are foresaken in the pursuit of the person in politics. When the person behind the politics becomes more important than the ideas presented, danger arises.
