Joy Forum is a kind of anti-statement and anti-architecture in confrontation with the surrounding building.
A gallery where we can handle and disarm any overwhelming feelings of institutional powerlessness.
Joy Forum presents Sanna Albenius.
My idea is based on the concept Lovemap, originated by sexologist John Money, in his
discussions of how people develop their sexual preferences are explained, as a person’s
internal blueprint of their ideal erotic situation. Lovemaps expand into three categories:
haptoerotic (surfaces) morphoerotic (visual) and gnomoerotic (narrative-based), which I use
as guidelines to chapter each piece. I’ve decided to start from the beginning in this project, by
revisiting my preteens, to research my personal sexual development. To recall that time, I am
creating a fictional garden-shed, built up with objects such as toys, interior, furnishings /
design and ornaments with sexual content or symbolism. My artwork results as trigger points,
to properly remember this era.
