SELFIE SACRIFICES
Digital map exhibited at KP Digital 22, Kunsthal Aarhus, Denmark 2022.
The work consists of a map with the names of different swamps and bogs located in the hilly moraine landscape north of Copenhagen. By clicking on the swamp on the map, you will be directed to the location on Google Earth where you can navigate in the 360 degrees street view. In each swamp you will find an immersed self portrait painted on semi-transparent paper with mud from the swamp and a decoction of alder cones.
The work experiments with Google Earth as an exhibition platform by creating connections between the digital and the site-specific physical reality, in which two traditional genres within fine art - the landscape and the self portrait - are put into play.
The title of the work refers to the word self-sacrifice, which means " the sacrifice of oneself or one's interest for others or for a cause" and wonders what the most precious item would be for modern humans to sacrifice: ones self image, ones selfie?
In Scandinavia in the Mesolithic period through to the Middle Ages bogs and swamps were possibly perceived as being sacred gateways to the other world and gateways to the Gods, and the most precious items such as earthenware, decorative metalwork, weapons, and human corpses were sacrificed/deposited there. Later in history the bogs were exploited as a source for iron and peat and in recent centuries drained for agriculture.
Today, bogs are considered highly endangered and vulnerable eco systems that needs protection and preservation.

FOREST FANTASIES and OTHER FORESTIC AFFAIRS
Artist in residence at L'Observatoire, Singapore, 2019.
The studio was converted into a “Faculty of Forest Fantasies and other Forestic Affairs”, and the nearby, partly forested area, became a place for wonder, imagination, and engagement, ‘a landscape of possibilities’.

GALLERY GO
Landscape painting in the 21st century might take shape as a wearable dress made of white canvas. The gallery (dress) displayed an exhibition of photos depicting "found forests" in Shanghai (found in books and in reality), and the exhibition was performed on the streets of Jinze, April 2018.
The work was responding to the challenges of being a global nomadic artist, whose work often requires applications, permissions, and network in order to come into being. The intention of Gallery Go was to make an autonomous art platform that was so light and ephemeral, that it moved around freely, crossing in and out of territories, borders and bridges (as we once roamed the forests of the world), requiring no approval and censorship - and if asked: “I am just walking around in my new dress”.
