Six fingered gloves left on different locations. Denmark, Norway, England.
"Line Larsen realises that in many ways these thoughts are ridiculous. ‘We might all be dead tomorrow’ she cries. The stupidity of painting in the face of a world gone wrong is a type of ‘divine madness’; in a time of the worst excess only laughter can save us. Who would still paint while Rome burns and the ship founders on the rocks? None, but the divine fools amongst us."
"The drainpipe exists still but now has a prosthetic, an addition -or customization as a professor of art put it- which in its curls solicits an interpretation of surrealism, curled objects being in the vocabulary of surrealism, Dadaism and the Metaphysical school. I find from my own perspective the drainpipe connotes playfulness and is therefore redemptive in its own way. Odd thing to say about urban fittings in Copenhagen streets – redemptive – but if we view it in the context of the urban environment and its somewhat oppressive forces, to come across a twist, a change, delights and restores a sense of the individual. Note here that the curled pipe has created asymmetry in relation to the other pipe – another element of challenging the normative."

"A GUY ON THE SIDEWALK TOLD ME WE MIGHT ALL BE DEAD TOMORROW AND THAT I SHOULD DO WHAT I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO DO, I HAVE ALWAYS WANTED TO PAINT SO I THOUGHT I SHOULD MAKE A PAINTING, BUT THEN I THOUGHT IF EVERYONE WILL BE DEAD TOMORROW NO ONE WILL BE AROUND TO SEE MY PAINTING"
Extensions added to drains on random houses, Denmark.
In a forest in Denmark every I5 minutes a set of speakers hidden in a birdhouse would play the recordings of a blue-winged kookaburra singing, until the batteries went flat. The Blue-winged Kookaburra usually lives in northern Australia and southern New Guinea.
Modified dead insects left in different places, like windowsills in cafees and libraries.
