Enter a world of images - moments captured in time. Some may look familiar, but remember, once taken, a photographic image locks a moment of time that is never repeated. I hope you enjoy viewing the selection on my web site. |

As part of the preparations for Aarhus 2017, a glass container was positioned by the harbour at Ringkøbing for a week. The theme for Aarhus 2017 is Rethink. I have made a light sculpture in the shape of an inverted ?. Here is is: Rethink - look at things from a new perspective. |

KUNSTNERNES SOMMERUDSTILLING 2011
This is one of only 4 juried art exhibitions in Denmark that are approved by the State. Acceptance to one of these juried exhibitions is fiercely contended with large numbers of entries. Success gains a point that eventually, if you get enough, gives you recognition by the state as an artist. I had two of my works accepted for this years' exhibition at the Janus Building, Tistrup Denmark. There were over 2.300 works submitted. Both pictures sold at the exhibition. Further copies are available - limited edition of 12 prints only. |

UN CLIMATE CONFERENCE Danish sculptor Jens Galschiot and his art workshop hung some 20 kilometres of blinking red lights up at a height of 7 meters during the Climate Conference. 7 metres is the increase in height of sea levels globally that would result if all the ice in Greenland melted. By hanging the lights up, Galschiot was drawing attention to the potential climate catastrophe that we are heading towards. In support of this action I installed some blinking red lights in Hvide Sande, at 7 metres above sea level. I positioned them above an existing marker that shows previous sea flood levels in the town. |

"BØLGEN" - "The Wave"
Over 15,000 people visited Hvide Sande for the opening of this regional festival in Jutland, Denmark. Inspired by Hokusai's "The Great Wave", I had created a massive wave made out of fish crates.
Preparation and test of light chains to create wave ripple effect.
And positioned around the fountain in the middle of the lake.
One fishing crate
One hundred and sixty seven fishing crates.
Under construction.

'Se Lyset' - "West Jutland Light"
June to August 2014
To coincide with the 'Se Lyset' theme of the ART HVIDE SANDE Artist Colony I built a 'viewing house' for visitors to see for themselves what it is when artists talk about that 'special light'. Visitors were encouraged to enter the building, sit down, relax, take their time and enjoy the 'light'.
This art installation was constructed with plastic fishing crates, borrowed from the town's fish auction rooms.

ART HVIDE SANDE Artist Colony 2014
Artists in Hvide Sande from 1st to 27th June. Exhibition from 3rd to 15th August.
As artistic co-ordinator of the non-profit organisation Kunst i Slusen ART HVIDE SANDE, I was responsible for choosing artists for our Artist Colony project. From the many applications six artists were selected to stay in Hvide Sande during June. With the theme "Lyset" - "The Light", they were inspired by the wonderful light out here on the West Coast of Jutland, Denmark, and produced artworks for the annual exhibition in August. Follow the project on Facebook, look for 'ART HVIDE SANDE' or see the web site: www.kunstislusen.dk

"Running Man"
Is running-
from famine
to escape war
away from poverty
in the dunes for fun
