                                             Excerpt from Window Dreamer





With the voice-over of a diva, the video tells it is a trailer and talks about what it means to be indicating          something and about all things it will be on its Grande Première.

I installed it once at a monter in Rigshospitalet, with blue carpet, 3 ipads with 3 videos, one was Window Dreamer, one was showing hands stretching for red berries in trees, one was showing a ceramic fontain, drawings, photos on overhead, branches with red berries, champagne glasses with jelly, ceramic napkins and flowers, a puppet basin and mirror. It was supposed to include a fontain with ceramic hands and feet but it got censored since people found it provocative.

                               The censored fountain, which I instead exhibited as this video documentation on ipad.

I later installed it differently on a solo exhbition at Gallery Q, with the video in a room of its own and a corridor of installation leading in to it, with red velvet curtains, fontain with ceramic objects, perfume bottle, puppet basin, typewriter, shoes, heartshaped sunglasses, pickled blood orange, ceramic oranges, ps controllers, snake, napkins, flowers and plane.
