"The Art Academy" (2017) is a documentary-style video essay about the Tromsø Academy of Contemporary Art and features a (good dose of) institutional critique, self-staging, genre parody and thoughts on the conditions for creating art and music. Several former students from the Tromsø art academy were asked to contribute, but all declined any direct involvement.
