Statement

I love science. I love reading about new ideas, theories and findings, to learn more about the world. I let science be a way to explain my surroundings, to translate various phenomenon into understandable terms. Still a great part of the universe remains a mystery and it is not possible to know if it will ever be fully explained, or that science will hold the answer. This occupies my mind, it challenges my knowledge and imagination. Through my work I explore metal and wood, past and future, thinkable and unthinkable and I find my own method of understanding. / Åsa Christensson
