“Anders is an artist working in video, sound, new media and installations and he is primarily concerned with identity. The human body lies at the root of projects that formally and conceptually chart identity and its construction as a preamble to broaching matters of violence, genders, memory, loss or ideology in which personal experiences co-exists with references to popular culture, the media and consumerism. Specializing in digital technologies, he aims to mix genres and ways of expression to explore the potential of audio visual media.”

"... Dualism", par Anders Weberg, met .../... en oeuvre cet élément liquide et nous rend spectateurs d'une silhouette humaine attachée à un dispositif en rotation irrégulière qui semble se prêter à un rituel, évoquant des narrations anciennes de transition ou d'initiation, l'aspect machinique constamment perturbé ou retourné par le fluide omniprésent, prévenant toute intrusion extérieure, et simultanément favorisant une vague de questions, dont celle qui nous poussent à poser un visage sur nos sujets d'empathie, parfois mimétiques, souvent arbitraires.

"Absent II" est video très courte tournée avec un téléphone portable par Anders Weberg qui fonctionne comme l'une de ces "microfictions" qui documentent une part de nos existences, celle-ci évoque le rêve et l'archéologie de la fabrication des images elles-mêmes, une sorte d'étude sur le mouvement et de restitution du sujet, parcellaire et organique, un petit archipel ou le détail contient le tout, y compris une certaine mélancolie. ..."
