Exhibition text
Made this denim outfit for the site specific exhibition HEY, THIEF! – curated and arranged by Kulturforeningen Mølhaugevej 6. All of the pieces shown at the exhibition were made specifically for the space: Kamille and Oscar’s farm in the middle of Jutland, DK (in Gjern).
Making the piece I thought a lot about clothes and identity – about who (and what) can wear what – about rights and outfits, about queernes and rhinestones – and about me missing it a lot in my upbringing, where I spent a big part of my childhood next to pig-farmers and where flashy and extravagant rarely were used as positive adjectives.
Now I had a chance of living my countryside fantasy, of giving it the sexy I was missing – and of finally playing dress-up with the machines.
The piece was exhibited amongst works by Kristina Fernos, Sally Dalgaard, Stine Stubdrup and Tobias Just.
