the distant near - returning to Portsmouth september/october

After a busy time preparing, I could finally show my work in Boathouse 4, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. My lightboxes are on display at aspex until October 24, as well as my slide show in the old guard rooms at Vernon Gate, Gunwharf Quay.

recycling - benches for the garden at Art Space

It's been a great day! Sunny and warm, and I finally built a bench for the garden, the medal-winning garden at Art Space. Bliss. 

autumn - one year later

I find it hard to belive that more than one year has passed since I came to Portsmouth. Returning now for the exhibition felt like coming home. It has been a fantastic experience to be at Art Space, to have the beach within walking distance, and to fall into the pace of another city. I hope to keep in touch, maybe return for other projects, maybe just for a social visit? 

a road trip, 12 hours, 5 countries. Nice but exhausting. Yet, I prefer this way of travelling to just getting on a plane.

Building the lightboxes, ready just on time....

Exhibition in Copenhagen

My photos from Portsmouth are part of CRW - Contemporary Reflections on War - an exhibition at The Art Academy in Copenhagen.

leaving Portsmouth....

Packing, finding storage space, leaving my studio. It's been a fantastic autumn, and I'm already looking forward to coming back next year. The next months I'll be busy preparing for my show with Aspex. I'm excited!

connecting spaces

My work looks so different according to whether day or night - therefore here some photos from diferent times of the day and evening.


Projection from my studio onto the wall next door, visible from the street as well as from inside the building- greeting the visitors as they come along..

The first impression when coming up the stairs; I opened the little door to the studio. Some members from Art Space, who have known the building for several years, had never noticed this door before - the space looks different seen from different positions.
