Kokong (Cocoon) 2008. Temporary commission for Lohove Kindergarden in collaboration with Karianne Stensland.

Kokong (Cocoon),2008.
In collaboration with Karianne Stensland I was commissioned to make a temporary art project for Lohove kindergarden in 2007/08. As part 1 of 3 projects (1:Kokong, 2:Ka sa du da and 3:I vildensky), Stensland and I made this temporary sculpture, Kokong (Cocoon), by wrapping one of the trees in the kindergardens near surroundings in a gold fabric. 

Kokong (Cocoon) was up for about two months. The children and staff at Lohove took part in both installing this piece and taking it down. The children were also given disposable cameras to
document the project during the 2 months

The Cross National Prevalence Study on ED, was jointlyother important people in your life?” little blue pill.

. These photographs were gathered in albums given to the kindergarden. In addition we made a selection of the photographs and turned these into memory board games for the children to play with. The gold fabric was left with the kindergarden for their own use after the sculpture came down, and we also made them their own gold hammock to be used during the summer months as a reminder.
