Invited to make a new site bound performative installation “Situasjoner (Nasjonalmuseet)”. Due to illness the work was postponed and planned to be presented after the opening exhibition. In collaboration with the museum, the work was in planning between 2020 – 2024. Due to a change in circumstances the National museum had to cancel this work in 2024 and sadly the work was not presented to the public.
