In
some newspaper articles I have been described as provocative artist
and in the absence of a better name,
is provocative art maybe a good name
for some of my non-commercial art projects.
They have all been exhibited public places that
fit the themes.
"Anger"
Installing Trinity Church Copenhagen. 2008
"Freedom
of speech"
Installation cemetery Denmark. 2006
Freedom of speech is very much
individually.
Maybe other people's free speech
not limited by the "Mohammed cartoons",
but my speech was decisive limited!
In the last 9 years I have worked on
art projects dealing with religion / culture
and limits on free speech.
"I do not
postulate that the art world's most important thing, but it becomes
dangerous
if we start
restrict our mindset and the right to question things. So we become
poorer ......."

"The
Last Supper"
Sct. Stephen's Church.
A 10 m. painting exhibited in the church of St. Stephen's Church
which is about
the Western world starts at the Last Supper, whether it has
occurred or not.
Here arises the idea of spreading the Christian message -
the message that since engulfs the world.
The painting provoked a priest conflict where Copenhagen's bishop
ultimately interfered
"Ascension"

A 10 m. painting at St. Stephen's Church tower facing

A painting about living in a locked reality from cradle to
grave.
"Death
Awareness"
A 20 m. painting exhibited at Kongens Nytorv
of the personal death,
but especially on myths of death.
"A
Christmas Exhibition"
A Christmas window-display, which symbolizes that
Christmas is a Christian anachronism -
a strange mixture
of religion, advertising and popular culture.
