I got really interested in the language used in blogs written by young girls - a young person's aggression, which is always lacking from the visual world.

Norway's a very gender-aware country, and we're very liberal. There are lots of women's voices being heard here compared to many other countries.

I'm very interested in the visual world because I'm also very interested in feminism. I find that the world of watching takes us into the most psychotic state of, like, "You are this one person, but you have to become another person to see these images."

I'm not in any way trying to make statements that are not also invaded by emotions and abstract ideas that I don't really understand myself. It's more interesting when I can do that.

I'm inspired by that rawness in very direct communication. My work is not meant to keep people happy or give them an escape.

I'm obsessed with voices in film. I have this memory of how people say words, even on the most intensely stupid reality TV show.
