Her et Sted

Her et sted can be read as a personal exploration of place and belonging. Six different places where the artist has lived have been the subject of a photographic survey in which the artist sought to take possession of each place and make it her ”own”. The photographs thus represent the artist's attempt to understand, collect, categorize and relate to new places.

Each place possesses something distinct and specific, something that the artist has sought to grasp through the photographs. Collectively they become an image and representation of the fleeting moment, just like the traces we leave behind, lingering in our absence.”Thus they form an archaeology of the future; an archaeology of abandoned objects and landscapes, light plastic furniture, papers, construction sites and equipment. The people in the photographs are in a way already leaving situations that define our culture, entering the silence that will be when we are no longer.” (Janike Kampevold Larsen)
