\u2018Your Application is Pending\u2019 is a performance based on the piece \u2018Genuine Government Issue\u2019. With my new Departments I also had the freedom to make myself the head of all of them. During this performance piece the audience could come and meet me in my temporary office at Cigarrv\u00e4gen 13 in H\u00f6kar\u00e4ngen, a project space in a suburb of Stockholm. The audience could apply to any of the Departments; I would interview them one by one for and after the questioning I approved or the denied their application. The application forms was found on location as well as the wall of Departments. In \u2018Your Application is Pending\u2019 I take on the role as the head of my own departments, dressed in a suit and with a custom made rubber stamp I investigated the absurdity of a questioning like this. I explore the role as the one holding power but also invite the audience to play with me and laugh at the absurdity of authority, and take silly stuff seriously.<\/p>\n

Thank you everyone who came and participated!!!<\/p>\n
