In Taking Over (Metamorphic Action) the setting up of Master students graduation show at Konstfack (University College of Arts, Crafts and Design, Stockholm) is slowly seen taking shape. We follow a progression from an empty warehouse to a finished exhibition open to the public. The video can be seen as a study of the organisation of space and at the same time as a symbol for the transformation the building itself, Höglagret is about to go through, and the gentrification that is already happening in the area.
