Video 1, deals with a fascination of the arcetypical  traditional housewife and my wish to become one myself. This is why I decide to knit some toy animals from some women's magazine, a poodle from a magazine from 1952, and an elephant from  2009. The video follows the knitting process as well as my reflections a long the way. The border between the actual me and a quite mixed up persona is rather thin in this piece, and the relationship with the camera takes a big part in the video.

Excerpt

Video 2, gives the word to the finished toy animals which have now taken on a life of their own. Apparently they live together in some sort of relationship, and the video turns out to be a kind of reality soap, where they confess their thoughts to the viewer. I stand behind it all as the puppet player, literately lending my voice to the animals.
