Östermalmstorg
During a weekend outing, the artist and her friends were unexpectedly attacked by security guards at Östermalmstorg subway while preparing to catch their train. What began as a few photos before their departure quickly escalated when the guards intervened without clear justification. Aware of the “monopoly on violence” that security staff possess, the artist realized that filming was their only recourse as tensions heightened. The footage went viral, prompting national news coverage and public outrage, but the guards retained their positions. Despite similar incidents occurring before, no reforms were made, and the abuse of power continued unchecked. In response, the artist created a painting that reimagines the confrontation and reclaims their story.

One cheerleader expresses that she makes about as much as a fast-food restaurant worker. While the brand director claims cheerleaders join for the experience rather than the money, their male counterparts receive both the experience and million-dollar paychecks. In response, the artist envisions an alternate reality where the cheerleaders rebel by burning down the stadium, using the outward appearance expected of them as a disguise to enact their resistance.
