Alva Roselius is an artist and scenographer working with language and spatiality. Informed by architecture and theater and inspired by phenomenology, queer theory and political movements, her works revolve around power, desire and normality.
They circle around an ambivalent longing for alternatives, resistance and closeness. But also a longing for respite, to not have to resist. Alva is educated at Konstfack in Stockholm and UMPRUM in Prague. Besides her artistic practice she writes for Flamman and Arbetaren.
Forever Young is an associative monologue revolving around time, fear, failure and normality. The text combines fragments from theoretical texts with absurdist everyday life observations and anecdotes. The monologue is performed in a scenography made of textile banners and casted objects.
