Her first production, Private Collection (Mette Edvardsen, 2002), was a performance about how we organize, collect and organize things.

She explored concepts like presence/absence, transformation and disappearance.

2011

In the later trilogy consisting of Black (Mette Edvardsen, 2011), No Title (Mette Edvardsen, 2014) and We to Be (Mette Edvardsen, 2015), she examined the possibilities and limitations of language in the real and imaginary space.

She looked at what is not, to provoke thoughts and fantasies.

They play out in the interval, in the blank space that occurs between two words (Black (Mette Edvardsen, 2011)), between a performance and a score (Opening (Mette Edvardsen, 2005)), between a book and a listener (Time has fallen asleep in the afternoon sunshine (Mette Edvardsen, 2010)), between a live and a recorded action (Time will show (Mette Edvardsen, 2004)), coffee & cigarette (2006 and 2008)). In her work, she uses repetition as a strategy, as a way of making things visible, of activating them. She is more interested in the interest of the audience in things than in the things themselves. She is also interested in how situations leave traces in memory, and how memory becomes an active part of reading something. Her work is both profound and witty, sober and rich in detail. By using a playful approach to thoughts and references Mette Edvardsen examines how language can be used to form pictures in the heads of the audience.

Mette Edvardsen performs her work worldwide.

The organization originated from a sense of solidarity and the desire to connect and support each other as artists.

Manyone is not a label, but a collaboration structure that respects the individual autonomy of the four artists involved.

They develop and finance their work independently.

The organization receives structural funding from the Flemish government based on the Kunstendecreet (Arts Decree).
