The Atelier
This is my art and it is DANGEROUS!
The Atelier is the public-facing iteration of my practice - where I share what the hell it all means!
Here you’ll find my finished collections, along with all the background info that digs deeper into what’s behind the pictures - from my inspirations, to interviews about the pieces, to the essays I write to accompany each collection.
The plot thickens…

About my work
In January I opened an exhibition at MDS Gallery in Copenhagen called Things Men Have Said To Me Instead Of Hello - the culmination of a year’s worth of thought and labour. And in March, for International Women's Day, I sat down with gender studies scholar Elisabeth Gehrke to talk about it live on stage.
