AFTRYK
AFTRYK is an ongoing collaborative project created with hundreds of schoolchildren from the Gellerup area. Through a series of workshops, the children explore their surroundings with curiosity and attention, collecting overlooked objects from daily life — a stone, a stick, a screw, a can — and transforming them into imprints in soft clay tiles.
Each tile is glazed and fired, becoming a unique expression and part of a larger collective artwork installed in public space. Over the years, the project has grown into a living archive of textures, memories, and marks from a neighbourhood in constant transformation.
AFTRYK stands as a permanent landmark shaped by many hands — a visual story of place, community, and the traces we leave behind.
""Drawing of a created memory"
Was a poetic, ephemeral outdoors installation based on my father's death. The character was painted with materials that would wash away with the rain, leaving some places white and others with a bit of color.
"The portable galleries"
These little yellow books are meant to travel with me to places and be shown to the people that I meet.
When I was living in Ireland, I lived in a very small room, there was literately only space for the bed. In my urge to work I started creating these small drawings of my experiences in Ireland as it was my first time ever in Europe. These drawings became a journal. At some point I got so many that I didn't know what to do with them - until I had these handmade yellow books crafted. I pasted all the drawings I had in them and called them "The portable galleries".
