The practice of Liv Bugge (born 1974 in Oslo, Norway, lives and works in
Oslo and Berlin) incorporates a range of different mediums, in which
video
often plays an important part. Many of her works are situated in the
borderland between dreams and reality, perpetrator and victim,
science
and
fiction.
The work often enters into different power relations, and Bugge is
interested in aggression as both a constructive and destructive force in
society. During the past few years, she has been working with
post-colonial
issues, in particular how the colonial system is explained and how one
relates to brutalities carried out in another place in space and
time.
