Performance Art Bergen

–Where were you born?Valestrand(Sveio)

– Where do you live? Valevag in Sveio, Vestland

– What pronouns do you use? he

– What makes you work with performance? It is a way to put out ideas in big size format  at an affordable price. 

– Do you have any rituals before performing? No

– What was the best performance you have done so far? Why? My best performance is: "With the stone on a leash". Because it is a site-specific work at an inspiring place and it has to do with bodily experience in life.   

– Are you currently working on any performance? No, because I have just delivered one. 

– What advice would you give to someone who is interested in working with performance? search for experience in life that has to do with the body and things. To concentrate and be fearless when performing, think that you are alone and that people around are thinking about themselves. Making contact and interacting with colleagues and the public are also an opportunity I have worked with. It is rewarding, but requires more organization.

– Can you give us a few names of performance artists who inspire you?
