Liv Strand

Sweden

My practice is rooted in the notion of reshaping – reshaping in order to reflect and (re-) activate definitions by translating them into form. Information, knowledge and perception are transposed materially, from one artistic expression to another. This shift opens up gaps between disciplines and materials, which become spaces for possible negotiation and re-articulation. This entails slowly sliding across a tilted plane from something obvious towards that which has not yet been (verbally or formally) pronounced. My work includes time-based practices such as experimental lectures, performance collaborations and kinetic installations. How can art carve wood from a table?
