Fia Backström works in New York City and Stockholm. Backström's work frequently focuses on the construction of subjectivity through authorship, and contemporary forms of co-existence. The work spans a large range of media, from broadsides, objects and performances to text, found images, and artworks, and often including peers, audience or institutional staff. Backström uses the mechanisms of display to enter larger debates on form, education, politics, and economics.
