Mailind Solvind Mjøen
Was born 1981 in Oslo/Norway.She studied at Valand Art Academy in Gothenburg, where she received her Master's degree in Fine Art 2011. Her main field is photography, video and sound.The works of the Norwegian artist are not always explicit in their politics and rarely dogmatic. Rather they employ and reflect similar tactics to those who seek to restrict access to what is also the primary theme of her work – power.
