Anita Wernström

Anita Wernström is an artist and educator, based in Stockholm. Through performance, installations, video and collage, she deconstructs her world, focusing on the politized body and visual pleasure. Based on postcolonial and feminist theories, she has developed an intuitive, emotional conceptual language with humorous, activist and poetical outputs. She has studied at the Slade School of Fine Art in London and her works have been shown at Bloomsbury New Contemporaries and Camden Art Center in London and Fullersta Gård in Stockholm.
