      • SPORE OP! is an installation comprising five artworks:

        Lørdag d. 05.12.2020, 55.67378,12.57888–55.676618,12.581201.
        Lørdag d. 27.02.2022, 55.68272,12.59346–55.69428,12.58591.
        Søndag d. 30.10.2022, 55.67315,12.57271–55.676618,12.581201.
        Søndag d. 22.10.2023, 55.69977,12.54247–55.676618,12.581201 

        The titles reference specific dates and coordinates along routes walked during 
        Denmark’s five largest demonstrations since 2020. The artworks are created 
        from stones collected along these protest paths. Mounted on the exhibition walls 
        alongside the corresponding dates and coordinates, the stones serve as both 
        memory and evidence. 

        The project explores the power of collective action and how it has 
        shifted over time. While demonstrations were once pivotal moments 
        of civil resistance, their impact in Denmark has waned. Fewer people 
        take to the streets, and protests no longer carry the same historical 
        weight. This work highlights the importance of protest as a democratic 
        right and a form of resistance that deserves renewed attention and appreciation. 

        The stones, gathered from these routes, embody both memory and evidence. 
        They map not the protests themselves but the cityscapes that hold the imprint 
        of resistance. They are silent witnesses to the struggles that shape a state and 
        its people.
