MODUS OPERANDI is an attempt to conceptualize and materialize the intriguing difference between owning an object and owning your own identity. To be mirrored by a physical object, something with a tangible presence, when your identity feels slippery and volatile. The work is approached by mixing contemporary and historical symbols and ornaments to convey a sense of how our heritage affects the present and the eclectic mix that constitutes a human being.


This project is based on the creation of a modular system for making candlestick, which will tell your personal history – both past, present and future. A continuously changing object as an invitation to introspection. A domestic candlestick to mirror yourself, in your own home, to create a link between your inner self and the rest of the world.



Modus Operandi är ett försök att konceptualisera och materialisera den fascinerande skillnaden mellan att äga ett objekt och att äga sin egen identitet. Att speglas i ett fysiskt föremål, något med en påtaglig närvaro, när ens identitet känns hal och föränderlig. Arbetet närmar sig detta genom att blanda samtida och historiska symboler och ornament för att förmedla en känsla av hur vårt arv påverkar nuet och den eklektiska blandning som utgör en människa.


Projektet bygger på skapandet av ett modulärt system för att göra ljusstakar, som berättar din personliga historia – både dåtid, nutid och framtid. Ett ständigt föränderligt objekt som en inbjudan till introspektion. En ljusstake för hemmet att spegla dig själv i, i ditt eget hem, för att skapa en länk mellan ditt inre jag och resten av världen.
