WORKS
BIG FUCKIN WONDER (INTERFERENCE FIELD IN A MUSIC STORE)
2025. 4K video, 9:16, 6:09 min. Sound.
Excerpt from a longer work. Full version available upon request.
Description: Filmed in a music store with the camera directed at the translucent pad buttons of an electronic instrument.
In the encounter between the camera sensor and the instrument’s electronics, an optical interference field emerges, where colour and light move independently of the instrument’s function.
TEMPORAL SQUARE
2025.
Archival pigment print
50x50
Series: Temporal Square (ongoing, 2 of 14 works shown)
A white square is sent from a computer to a television screen and photographed during the transmission.
A faulty connection disrupts the signal. The glitch appears not as surface noise, but as a shift in time.
GLITCH #1–11 (CAPTURED)
2025.
Archival pigment print
50 × 50 cm
Series: Glitch #1-11 (Captured) (ongoing, 5 of 11 works shown)
Description: I started waiting for the computer to stop working. It became a method. With each crash, an involuntary image appeared, something no one had designed. The works are based on digital errors, captured with a mobile phone in the brief moment before the screen turned black.
WAVEFUL
2025. UHD video 16:9, 2:46 min. Sound.
Theremin Anna-Lena Jaktlund, Music Erik Carlsson
Waveful is distributed through Filmform, the art film & video archive.
Description: In Waveful, my hand movements become waves of sound and light. It is a dialogue where the technology always has the final word.
Materials: LED gloves, theremin, drum machine, synthesizer
BLACK HOLE BILLBOARD
2025.
4K video, 9:16, 6:09 min. Sound.
+
Archival pigment print
Mounted on Dibond, Gloss laminate (Hi-Gloss)
28 × 50 cm
Series: Black Hole Billboard (ongoing, 2 of 4 works shown)
Description: A commercial display outside a shopping mall floods the space with light, except for one lamp that has gone dark.
Moving closer, the image collapses into color, blur, and a single point of absence.
WATER, REWOUND
2025.
UV print on brushed aluminium, from DV video stills
30 × 20 cm
Description: Running water recorded on DV tape and re-recorded during rewind. The composition alters the fall of the water.
The work examines how time, direction, and movement are displaced when an organic flow passes through technical layers.
SYMPHONIE WAVELENGTH
2020. UHD video 16:9, 3:16 min. Sound.
Motion Anna-Lena Jaktlund, Music Erik Carlsson
Symphonie Wavelenght is distributed through Filmform, the art film & video archive.
Description: I was thinking of Eggeling, but let chance conduct. Symphonie Wavelength is a tribute in motion to the roots of abstract film, where improvisation and structure dance in polyrhythmic interplay between image and sound. The film was painted with a flashlight.
THE MOON
2008. HD video 16:9, 1:53 min. Sound.
The Moon is distributed through Filmform, the art film & video archive.
Description: A handheld recording of the full moon.
The distant light is drawn across the image plane and stretched into motion. The fixed point dissolves into circles and lines.
The Moon has among other places been shown on the International Short Film Festival in Oberhausen, Syros International Film Festival and Zita Folkets Bio in Stockholm and Västerås Art Museum.
WIND SITUATION (STOCKHOLM COUNTY, MONDAY JUNE 3RD 2013 AT 3 PM.)
2013. Sound installation.
Listen to the sound online
Description: Fifty mobile recordings of the VMA warning signal were made simultaneously at different locations across Stockholm County. The recordings are arranged spatially according to the participants’ geographical positions at the time of recording.
By treating the signal as sound material rather than message, the work forms a temporary listening space shaped by synchronicity and location.
The work was produced as part of Artoteket, a platform for art lending.
Materials: Sound, 5.1-system, box made of matches, booklet, map of the VMA-system in Stockholm County, street names, compass, tyfon horn.
Description: Sounds recorded from four identical flatbed scanners are assembled into a looped composition and played through a four-channel system. Inside an enclosed room made of blinds, the mechanical variations of the scanner sounds are presented independently of image production.
Materials: Sound loop, 4 speakers, 5.1-system, blinds and fabric.

JUMPBOX
2012. Interactive sound installation.
Watch the documentation video online
Password: Interaktivtljudverk
Description: Each jump triggers short fragments of popular music that interrupt one another. The pace is determined by movement, while the structure remains random. The Pd program randomizes the music when the microphone and the trampoline connect.
The work shifts control from listening to physical action.
Materials: Two trampolines, foam, contact microphones, computer, soft ware Pd Program, four speakers, poster with a selection of 100 hit songs released between 1960 and 2010.
THE EARDRUM
2011. DV Pal video 16:9, 6:35 min. Sound.
Percussion sound material: © Erik Carlsson
Carpet beater: Linda Madsen
Sound composition: Anna-Lena Jaktlund
Description: Just as objects sound when you beat on them, the eardrum vibrates when struck by sound waves. Almost as a mat that someone has set in motion. In the musical listening is time a concrete reality and the sound waves become a direct connection between our inner and outer room.
The percussion sounds are drawn from recordings made with percussionist Erik Carlsson, who struck each instrument once, creating a broad sound palette for the work.
The Eardrum has been shown at Galleri Fisk in Bergen Norway, Kristianstadbionalen and parabola Artfilmfest in Stockholm.
ACOUSTIC FEEDBACK
2007. Format: a box 40 x 40 cm.
Description: A furnished room inside a box that listens to itself. A closed system of sound, reflection, and feedback.
Materials: Pixelated patterns, mirrors, wires, eavesdropping tools, and technical equipment.
