grief is weird. soft. heavy. sometimes beautiful.

‘Den sidste perle’ after the fairytale by Hans Christian Andersen is a space to feel it all.

it’s a quiet space for grief, memory and softness. you light a pearl for what you’ve lost. the flute sings. the body responds. we remember – together.

erindringsblomster is a poetic journey through H.C. Andersen’s house in Odense - together with fellow students, we have each made small artistic pieces that weave into an artistic walk - marking 150 years since H.C. Andersen’s death.

working with this team has been incredible. I’ve learnt so much. I’ve felt so much.
