Artist Statement
In 2013, I created R.I.P. DIVA, an animated video marking the symbolic end of my life in the spotlight — a farewell to the persona who once thrived there. I didn’t know then that this eulogy would take a decade to unfold. Twelve O’clock-tales and After-hours Thoughts became its continuation: a chronicle of transformation, using the rituals of the bar — its recipes, its rhythm, its small acts of service — as a way to restore the mind.
Finishing these vignettes brought the clarity to step away from the stage and begin again, later working in the Traumatic Brain Injury department at Sunnaas Hospital, helping others rebuild their lives. Through that experience, I discovered that, whether mixing a martini or studying the human brain, the aim is the same — to find balance between the wild and the disciplined.
This work is for anyone who has learned to live their light differently — not extinguished, but reshaped.
