Erkman's artistic practice plays around the exploration of abstract concepts through the mediums of sculpture, installation, and photography.By using forms, colors, and interventions such as distortion and modification, the artist seeks to make them tangible. She also employs music as a driving force for her abstract and expressionist canvases.

PERFORMANCES
This work’s installation draws inspiration from the game “musical chairs” to address the concepts of localization, positioning, and earning a place for oneself. Chairs are subjected to operations that rob them of their functions; the process is repeated for every chair. Following this operation, the object in question now loses its old status and is brought to a new position. Humankind’s struggle to position themselves in society, a musical chairs game of one’s own, is played by the artwork’s observer.
