Interview with Pelle
Who
I’m Pelle and i am a video artist and musician.
What
I’m Pelle and i am a video artist and musician. In my portrait videos i lean into a documentary direction, where i show the world which i see, through other voices. A big part of my expression is also through my music, which i underline with performances in videos.
How
I’m working mostly behind the camera but also perform in front of it. The way how i create my worlds begins mainly in the colour grading of my videos. In the music i express myself through writing and a microphone. For me it is inevitable to do that really close with the music production itself. A big part of my craft happens to be collectively, which is a crucial and precious way of working for me. Either way in music projects or in videos which don’t only represent one voice.
Why
I need this kind of expression to create own worlds in which i can find a language for my feelings and eyes.
Where
I mostly work home at my own place where im with me. But also come to creating on the way to something, someone or with someone. A big source for my creations are different locations with their people and friends outside of my hometown.
When
After the day is coming to an end i do most of my artistic practise. I find myself more concentrate when socialising and daily routines are done.

Artistic Research
I’m interested in colour behaviour and how film shapes a different reception next to the newer digital ways of videoworks. How rhythm and a authentic energy creates a specific feeling that brings people to move.
