K v a l i t e t s t i d (Quality Time)

Performance (duration 20 mins), installation (H. 240 cm, L 230 & 115 cm)

Materials: Plywood, ready mades, cardboard

Part of the  Bfa3/HDK-Valand graduation exhibition: Rugged Terrain/Confident Stride, May 2022 at Konstepidemin, Gothenburg.

Quality time is a polysemantic installation & performance - a work with several meanings that converge in the concept of quality.

Both food & art are characterized by their relationship to the word quality, but also to personal experiences. Through the most popular weekend food in Sweden; tacos, I summarize three years of contemplation about the art room, who does (not) see art and my own personal relation to this space.

The work contains a story about dinners that never happened. Through a performance, where I eat a taco dinner for two alone, a family Friday is relocated to the opening of the exhibition. Confirmation can generate quality on a personal level but the concept is bigger than myself.
