Albertslund Library Vs. Bascofive

Did an interesting chalk mural at the Albertslund Library together with artist Lints and Mormor. I haven't worked with chalk before but it was quite fun and relaxing. Thanks to the boys from Helvetikat for putting this together. Here is also a time lapse video for you to enjoy.

Draw

Draw nothing and everything, draw yourself, always myself again and again. All the violence and hatred and feelings that I have inside splattered on a page, soo elegantly so destructively. I don't know why I do this, don't know why I create.

...but I do it, every, single, day.

Burning Cars

This piece is for the neglected young immigrants of Denmark or really citizens with ethnic backrounds, "Does one have to burn cars to be heard". They are so neglected in society that they've turned to setting cars a light so that someone will listen.....or at the very least vent there own frusterations.

Galore

I was a part of a show here in Copenhagen called Galore at the Valby Culture Hus. I was able to get some great photos off a friend of the show. I worked with a combination of paintings, installation, clothing, and a bird mask. I was happy with the results.

God gave me a knife
