The work is composed of collaged images taken at the World Heritage Sites of the Decorated Farmhouses in Hälsingland and the Berlin Modernism Housing Estates. It deals with memory inspired by the idea of moving through a perfect house. Everything that happens in it appears to us as part of a coherent construction and yet the individual parts are constantly rearranging themselves, because as a whole they elude our understanding. Within this imaginary space the concept of history is alive and vibrant and cannot be fixed.
