A hand drawn animation played as a video on an LCD screen, showing a man smoking sitting on an armchair. He only moves his arm, hand and head, drawing special attention to this simple action. Artist's statement. ‘When screening my animations on the LCD monitors, I consider them as much as an object than a video work. By using the thin screens I wanted to keep a reference to still image (hanging on the wall) and to the (still) drawing.’ ‘I am interested in the possible meanings of “things”, and the possible meaning of “things” happening to “things”. I am interested in simple setting of “things” and the meaning it might create. (...) The titles of my works only name a “things” that takes part in the animation.’ ‘All the animations are hand drawn in computer (PhotoShop), and then transferred to video. Drawing is important in my work because it makes me free to choose “things” and put together "things the way I want, in the setting I want, and animate them in to the happening I want. It makes it easy to describe happenings in a simple way, without it being possible happenings. I think the impossibilities in the happenings I animate are an important point in my work.’
