" I have born in 1986 in Estonia and lived all my conscious life in free Europe. I have never been hungry or thirsty, known fear of violence. I have always had a home and people who care about me. I have never been alone, I have lived in a safe world.

Every morning I read world news to find out what is happening. There are a lot different news channels and information sources. It is difficult to see the difference between real and virtual life. The constant flow of information creates a black hole and it is impossible to know what is reality, film, a joke or tragedy…"

Documentation for a fictional provoking story about unknown figure invading my personal space.

exhibition GATECRASHER views in MadArt Gallery in April 2012

I had a feeling someone was following me on my daily run. So I decided to catch them in act wearing my portable sports-camera. I saw a girl passing me. I saw her again in a little while, then again and again. Then I realised, the girl was me...

Video conversation between me and my mother. My mother, also an art critic and journalist is asking me questions regarding my future plans as an artist: What will you do now when you have graduated from art college? Do you think a Bachelor degree is enough? What do you consider your role to be as an artist? What do you want to accomplish as an artist? etc.

I am cutting onions, crying (caused by onions) and answer I don' t know, I don't know... to every question becoming more hysterical with each answer.

Comic book about a conspiracy theory of Japan's radiation crises.
Tsunami that hit Japan was simulated by world leading corporations to create radiation leaks that would cause a generation of mutants to be born. Eight handed mutants became a new cheap labor, who could work faster and more effective thanks to extra hands.

Time is passing non-stop, and we follow it with clocks and calendars. Yet we cannot study it with a microscope or experiment with it. And it still keeps passing. We just cannot say what exactly happens when time passes.Physical time is public time, the time that clocks are designed to measure. Psychological time is private time. It is perhaps best understood as awareness of physical time. Psychological time passes relatively swiftly for us while we are enjoying an activity, but it slows dramatically if we are waiting anxiously for the water to boil on the stove. The slowness is probably due to focusing our attention on short intervals of physical time. Meanwhile, the clock by the stove is measuring physical time and is not affected by anybody's awareness.

"Seize the time" clock is made as a present to my mother who never has enough time. By spinning the wheel of this clock it's possible to change the time to suit the user.

Complete inventory of all the things at my home. Inventory is shown on an apartment plan. While doing inventory I released I have a red box, where I collect things that I don't need, but also do not want to throw away. This red box has become a filter between something useful and rubbish. I photographed all things in it. While exhibiting I asked visitors to give me advice what should I do with these things.

I asked 25 people to think about someone they once knew well but have since lost contact, I also asked them a reason why. Using each persons silhouette I created 25 post cards with their lost persons name and the reason of loosing contact.When this process was complete each post card was sent to random addresses, kindly asking recipient to forward it their lost person.

Three artist's talks organized within program 52 ideas and surprises to promote contemporary sculpture.
We chose nine contemporary Estonian sculptures and made models of food based on them, then asked the artist to come and talk about their work. While the artist were introducing their work the food-models were eaten.
Food and eating together created a familiar and friendly atmosphere between people visiting and the artists talking.
