Blended Voices 2023
(Blendede Stemmer)
Spirefestival (Growth Festival) Denmark

I am interested in how institutional structures shape individuals in relation to identity, gender and power.

In this project, the focus was the Danish Parliament – Christiansborg – as an institution, and especially the parliament's Speaker’s podium as a platform for representation.

I created eight, handmade posters out of 45 selected historical speeches delivered from the Speaker’s podium of the Danish Parliament (by men) from 1864 to 2023. Printed portraits of the speakers were also included in the materials to be blended into posters.

The speeches were printed in Helvetica font on white A4 paper (80 grams). These were then soaked in water for 24 hours before being blended into a paper pulp. The pulp was pressed into a handmade frame the size of an election poster and left to dry, thus making a new ‘blended’ poster in a outdoor posterframe.

Visitors of Spirefestivalen 2023 (Growth Festival) were invited to follow the process of creation of a new poster every day during the festival.

Billedbærer 2022
Bladr, Copenhagen

Collaboration between the three artists Myne Søe-Pedersen, Lotte Fløe Christensen and Kirstine Autzen

The exhibition Biledbærer examines the ability of images to move from one context to another, between people, between archives and media, and to enter into new meanings. Through video, works on the wall and four unique artists' books, the three artists investigate the flexibility of images.

The exhibition has been made especially for the exhibition site Bladr, a specialist bookstore and platform for artists' books in Copenhagen.
