Show/project
Papermake's dance, Silkeborg, Denmark
25 July - 9 August
Two weeks with exhibition and performance. The theme is paper, and the making of paper, relating to Silkeborgs long history of papermaking.
The exhibition at Kulturspinderiet was open during the whole paper project showing art works from eleven of the pariticipating artists.
During two weeks time all artists created art works based on paper in, and outside of, musik og- teaterhuset. There was a second opening on 5 August where finished paper art works were presented. A performance was made, starting outside musik og- teaterhuset and ending in the room with the Stream installation
The Stream (working title: the river)
I made an installation in a dark room approx. 15 meters long. Over the heads of the visitors hangs 750 paper sheets in thin threads. They are highlighted with UV light and set in motion with fans.
