Horse Inside Out

Set design
2019-2020




This project was made together with Wunderland, where we created tactile textures for the immersive sculpture-installation and performance piece, under the creative leader Mette Aakjær’s vision.
The sculptur was at ARoS Art Museum, Reykjavik Art Museum, Iceland and Gallery Ahjo, Joensuu, Finland.

The art piece is a hybrid of sound, spoken poetry, installation art, performance, dance and kinetic interaction.
