About The Artwork

"Vil Du Med I Skoven?" (Wanna Come For A Walk In The Woods?) is made during a Guest Artist stay at International Ceramic Research Center Guldagergaard in the fall and winter of 2011. The triangular shelf called a "Amagerhylde" is a traditional Danish knick-knack shelf. The knick-knack on my "Amagerhylde" all relates to music and instruments, the piece is a site-specific commission made for Ringsted Musik- og Kulturskole (a music school for children) located at the old military barracks in the Danish town of Ringsted. I wanted the Instruments to be visually ambiguous, the sausages and tree trunk could be a drum, a spider has turned a branch into a harp and the maracas are falling from the oak tree.

I am working with mixed media sculpture, making and arranging multiple components into complex narrative tableaux of visual excess. The dialogue between components and the way one's unconscious can direct the composition interests me. I try to create a place beyond reality, a deceitful echo of the real world, thet bends the perception of what is real. I want my work to look like a very skilled child could have made it, clumsy and elaborate at the same time. Initially the viewer may, mistakenly, be drawn to my figures thinking them to be toys; however closer examination reveals their rather darker narrative. They invite you into an absurd and surreal world where things are not what they seem... A frozen moment that indicate a story and mood but at the same time is open for the viewer to filter their own references through, to make sense and contribute to the story themselves. My aim is to create a visual poetry based on my own personal story. Contact: Email: malene_h_rasmussen@hotmail.com Phone: +44 (0) 7807807676
