In this video performance, the artist stages herself as her father "Geir O. Pedersen" alongside him in an attempt to examine power structures, authority and longing. After discovering the United Nations Youtube channel, the artist realized she was able to access Security Council briefings, including the briefings of the specific council established to work on the Syrian negotiations, which "Geir O." leads. By following the videos posted on the channel, she can follow the developments in Syria, gain insight into her father’s work, and imitate a proximity to him and his everyday life.
