- As my exam project I did an exhibition at Botkyrka Konsthall called Tre Mellan Rum (In Between). The exhibition was dealing with our perception, what we see as the truth and how we look at time: the past, present and future. When the exhibition was on in Botkyrka I was presenting the exhibition at Stockholm University as something that had already taken place back in time. In the echibitiion, I was working with the artists Stina Persson, Linus Svensson, and Jenny Åkerlund.

- My master thesis was dealing with the Hilma af Klint exhibition that was shown at Moderna Museet in 2013. The research was aiming to reveal the curatorial strategies when using history as a tool within the production of an exhibition. The aim with the study was to see how the exhibition positioned itself in relation to how at we look at the practice of modern history writing.
