Showpiece, Galleri Nicolai Wallner Copenhagen, DK). Curated by pro tempore.art


Showpiece was an exhibition in motion, presenting artworks within a performative framework that blurred the boundaries between artist, artwork, and the relationship that binds them. Conceived by pro tempore.art as an experiment in exposure, the exhibition asked what it means for both artwork and artist to be made visible at the same time.

Svovlgul Sol was originally created for the artist's book Atlas, published by Tacet Press in 2017. Combining diary entries with notes on colour, geography, and linguistic navigation, the publication unfolds through thirteen photographs made over the course of thirteen months. Like the maps of an atlas, the images chart a gradual passage: from underexposure towards increasing luminosity and saturation, culminating in Svovlgul Sol, an overexposed landscape where the image is burned almost entirely into light.
