Mother of Pearl

Mother of Pearl / Perlemor, 2016, dyed and bleached lycra in 15 poster frames, each frame 120x80cm.

Site specific work for Sydhavn Station Exhibition Space, located in Sydhavn train station, Copenhagen, DK.

During the summer month of July, the poster frames of the exhibition space Sydhavn Station, a busy train station, are dressed in swimsuit fabric. Colourful and shiny fabric is pressed between background and cover sheet, exposing sections of the back plates. With glitter, hologram effects and harmonic color graduations, passersby and commuters are invited to dream of another place in the shimmering folds of the fabric.
