Artist Statement
Jacobsson is looking for new links between idea and technique where the spontaneous and unpredictable play together with the conceptual. Jacobsson experiments with methods both in terms of direction on film and with analog techniques such as drawing and sculpture. With this as a starting point, she creates playful and thoughtful works. As a video artist, Jacobsson works both in the gallery room, in the theatre and in the cinema hall. She has had many collaborative projects with various directors and performers for over 20 years.

Jacobsson is looking for new forms of expression with film all the time. «I want to see how I can make the most of the medium both through the conceptual thinking but also through the visual expression. Video and film have such great potential when working with it in space. I can manipulate both time and place and "trick" and "seduce" the viewer. I find it interesting and exciting to try out new ways to build video installations. The main content of my work reflects cultural connection and social structures. I stage stories of cultural solidarity together with political issues. Through several projects of artistic collaboration, I have had the opportunity to work with different expressions, on stage as well as in the gallery space, which has resulted in my multifaceted expression ».
