Carl-Mikael Björk
Visual Artist
Carl-Mikael Björk is a visual artist and educator based in Sweden, teaching at Malmö University. With a Master of Arts in Photography, his work moves within the overlapping terrain of artistic expression and academic inquiry. His artistic research explores performativity, identity, and the shifting relations between subject and object, human and non-human. Photography is both artefact and apparatus – a practice diffracted through feminist philosophy, queer theory, and new materialism. Drawing on thinkers such as Karen Barad, Donna Haraway, and Judith Butler, he investigates how photographic processes participate in the making of knowledge and meaning.
