«Old Man going Up and Down a Staircase»

In this 5-part series, Tandberg is dressed as an old man ascending and descending a staircase. If in the series «Undo» she reflects the restricted mobility of her pregnant body and changes in her living situation, in these images Tandberg casts herself in the role of an old man whose movements, restricted due to other circumstances, are just as much characterized by a certain clumsiness.
