I use ready-mades in my work, like shirts and braces. Most of the time I use fragments of shirts, like cuffs, collars and pockets. I have been trying to give the fragments a new shape and a new function by building them up, using their construction, in a different way. This is how I am putting them into a new context. I also often decode the use of white shirts in the world of politics and corporate business. In this work “Money Short Cuts” I have been concentrating on a serious global problem, corruption. More specific it is about Money Laundering / White-wash. First you see the black cuffs that become whiter and whiter on its way to the top. When you go closer you can see the world map in embroidery on the whole tapestry. The countries are embroidered in black but some of the countries are embroidered in red. Those are the countries and the places where it is possible and easy to wash your money white. 16
