Destiny af Kleen
Destiny’s work is rooted in social care, a genuine interest in people, and a clear activist and political perspective. She often uses “place” as her starting point and has created several participant-based projects that explore how we share and use public space.
As the artistic leader of DansPlats Skog—an artist-run production space and dance stage—she curates the program and works deeply with ideas about place development, cultural geography and the urban norm. In recent years, she has created a series of installations and site-specific works across Gävleborg County, danced with horses, built dance floors in the forests of Hälsingland, planted 40 trees as acts of comfort, and created and patented two hugging machines.
