CARL-OSKAR JONSSON
Born 1991
"I work with drawing, sculpture and text, moving within a system of images and associations that often describe a social structure of expectations, power or limitations. Here, different genres are combined with personal content and everyday routines. In my drawings, I keep coming back to depictions of sequences or scenes of action, while my sculptures usually reinforce and extend the space of the drawings. My texts are anecdotal misadventures, written from various perspectives and characters, and often convey the message that you can learn something from your misfortunes (albeit very little).
In the interaction between the written word and drawing, I attempt to build an assumption — that small events can make up entire chapters of our lives, and (if only for a second) lead us to engage with society's indistinct structures and complexities."
