“Tvillingernes Ursang” has been selected as Category Winner of the 23rd. edition of the Julia Margaret Cameron Award for Women Photographers, while “Interlude” and “All of us” received honorable mentions in their categories! (swipe to see)

I’m incredibly grateful for this acknowledgment! 🖤🙏🏼🖤

“Preserved Beauty” is a 7 piece conceptual self-portrait series created around the lengths we sometimes go to, in order to hold on to and preserve that which we find beautiful. 🖤🍂🩸🌺

Plastic wrapping, pickling and the art of preservation/conservation itself, all start out as a means to hold on to the natural beauty in an object.

The preservation process however often quickly leaves the object fading, estranged from the natural world and sometimes even more scary than beautiful..

The Preserved Beauty series was awarded an honourable mention in the 18th Julia Margaret Cameron Award for female photographers 🙏🏼

“On lost cats and shadows” (2023)
(sound on)

- “What I think is this: You should give up looking for lost cats and start searching for the other half of your shadow.”
(Haruki Murakami - ‘Kafka on the Shore’)

I started creating video works at the beginning of 2023 as a natural progression from still photography, in order to tell more immersive stories. This has led to an exciting journey of embracing imperfections and surprising results, like here when our black cat was clearly worried about what I was doing out there in the snow, and suddenly became an intrinsic part of the story.

I’m very excited to continue exploring this new medium alongside my still photography going forward.

16/20 editions of this work are still available as NFTs (link in my bio or via DM).

I’m grateful to @disir.photo for the opportunity to present some of my work to the community these last days.

“Light your own way” is a conceptual self-port

“Light your own way” is a conceptual self-portrait created at the end of the first covid lockdown, where finding and lighting your own way through the turmoil of emotions and thoughts literally became the only way forward at a time of great uncertainty. The complete loss of my own creativity during the first part of lockdown furthermore fuelled the fears, but turned out to be a very powerful source of creative ideas at the end.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Lighting my own way has become a cornerstone of how I think of my own creative journey too. We all have different paths to being an artist, and mine went through a decade long phase of science, before being able to return to my creative roots. Turning this around to be a win of life experience and not a loss of time spent doing art, has been part of lighting that part.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
On a larger scale, this work also represents the transformative power of an artist’s journey on an inner, emotional level.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My work is the result of decades of tough inner work in order to reach the freedom of expression through art, and most important self-acceptance.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
There is a huge importance of the female gaze at this time - Women telling our own stories, in our own voice, without fear.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’m carrying that torch forward for my daughters, and would love to see it carried further out into the world too.

Hi everyone, a fresh introduction from me, in the

Hi everyone, a fresh introduction from me, in the honour of being this week’s guest photographer at @disir.photo - a new network for Nordic Womxn Photographers.

I’m a visual artist and photographer, since 2015 based on the Danish island of Ærø. I create emotional stories balancing between the autobiographical and the conceptual, using my body and the natural world to translate my ideas into tangible work, centred around dreams, our inner world, and the human-nature interconnection 🤍🍂

I have been an artist always, and got my first camera when I was 12, but for various reason couldn’t follow that path initially, so went the long way through university, and now also hold a degree in botany from The Natural History Museum of Denmark and the Royal Botanical Gardens of Kew (UK).

I have been working professionally as an artist for around 12 yrs now.
In the past 7 years I’ve had the joy to be widely exhibited, lately e.g. in TriBeca (NY), Le Grand Palais Éphémère, Paris (FR), Ninfa Labs, Milano (IT), Holbæk Kunstforening (DK), Miami Art Week (US), Tech Contemporary, Cph (DK), and JANUS Museum of Modern Art/VestJyllands Kunstmuseum (DK).

Being ever curious, since late 2021 I have been an active part of the internationale crypto art movement, is represented on the curated platform @superrare.co , and has multiple art works in the permanent digital collections of The Tezos Foundation and Women’s Museum.
