I think this lady was suspected of planning  a school shooting and the paintings are cool too.

I do like cliches and "hallow" stuff, heh. Also its interesting to observe someone who is brutally honest http://riinu.livejournal.com (http://riinu.livejournal.com) She looks/sounds like a overaged teenaneangstgothwhatever chick just because she is IMO.

This performance is so retarded that it turns to be good     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hueRxJIaHcM (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hueRxJIaHcM)

Ok, now I can understand your point of view. Overaged teenager is very fitting description when I read her journal, haha!

This is pretty good too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zs0fKztDgQE

It's best NOT to read any of the rants. Also the videos and performances are not that good compared to what she does best: paint.

Her best quality is painting technique. Especially older bigger works are huge in proportion and atmosphere.
Topics of paintings may appear "cliche", yet it's kind of "up-to-date". You know, she must be one of the first to include the norwegian mass murderer in painting, hehe.. ? Of course the aim appears to be cheap provocation and therefore "cliche", yet being just about only talented artists to put that subject matter on canvas, one can always discuss what exactly is cliche?

I have one of her original works on display at Sarvilevyt. Been thinking of investing to something in future. Would have to check out.

Somehow I do find her performances also interesting. Would like to see her on same bill w/ some PE/Noise acts.
