​

Jennifer Spångerud (b.1988) is a method shifter and often works together or in dialogue with other practitioners. The sharp contrast between her different working methods welcomes cheating and detours, producing varying results. She wants to put an emphasis on the possibility of altering the world ourselves, asking if it really has to be this fabricated? 

 

She has previously arranged power naps on zoom, created hidden websites for random and direction-less scrolling and carved dance tokens out of potatoes for an imaginary coulisse-like replica of a dance floor vision from the 1920s. 

 

Jennifer graduated in 2022, with a Master in Fine Art at HDK-Valand Academy of Art and Design, at the University of Gothenburg.
