I Participated whit Glöm Bort Mig (Forget About Me) and Glöm Bort Mig Nu (Forget About Me Now)
Glöm Bort Mig and Glöm Bort Mig Nu is textile artworks that interprets the experience of being stuck in a negative loop through the video game The Sims and digital TC2 weaving. In the artwork, I created a sim character in the game where I chose not to fulfill any of her wishes, resulting in her being very unhappy.
The Sims is a video game where players can create their own simulated people, known as "sims," and control their lives by choosing their personalities, careers, relationships, and homes.
I created the artworks by taking screenshots of my sim character in the game, processing them in an image editing program, and layering them with weave patterns that I then transferred to a TC2 loom and wove with wool, cotton, and mohair.
