Artistic Description and Contribution

The environment and concept contain visual, tactile and bodily portraying.

This is my latest and ongoing work “Blueprint _ The Baseplates of Democracy”.

An artproject made in stainless steel with a narrative development of democracy’s presence in our everyday life.

My contribution is a physical platform for democracy to be explored. The abstract principles of democracy are translated into physical license plates (like those on a car but in an artistic sized up scale). Each plate represents a social democratic quality such as impact, transparency, defence, voice and integrity. Inviting the audience to reflect upon their experiences and involvement

”in The Collective Blueprint of Democracy”.

Educational Approach and Structured Interaction

The ambition is to present the visitors with a base where you can translate your democratic or non- democratic experiences through the license plates. Visitors are encouraged to practice democracy, not experiencing it as a distant structure but as something they can shape, grasp and participate in. The project includes educational material that embraces the interaction between the participant, the artwork and democratic ideas. The dialog is to correspond with member by evolving around the core parts of the 5 W´s and the 1 H.

Purpose

”Democracy’s Baseplates” keeps moving in favour of a Democratic Foundation in the Civil Society.
