Longing to talk about Light brings together works that emerge from and dissolve into one another.

In the beginning there’s repetition and rhythm:
countless matchsticks embedded in wax create wall objects (That will be). These are then set on fire and destroyed, morphed in a way, giving rise to new works (That was). Video works document the fleeting, intangible moment of ignition, the burning, and the intuitive extinguishing.
Traces and remnants mark the surface, formed partly by chance (It flickers cheerfully, crackles loudly).
To work with fire is to take that chance, that risk – to surrender, to release, and to trust.

To me, the works contain characteristics and structures of language: only through relentless repetition, radical usage, through letting go and reframe, it is both possible and impossible to say something at all. Language is always just an attempt, an essentially necessary one we only get to truly understand in doing it over and over again.
