About

I am educated cand.scient, phd in bodymind arts and sciences at the University of Copenhagen, with intensive studies in contemporary art and dance in New York, London, Seattle and Geneve, Paris and Firenze. I have been working as an associate professor at the university of Copenhagen in bodymind arts and sciences, but work now as an artist and a guest professor in poetics of human movement and artistic research. I am inspired from life, nature, music, literature and art. I work primarily with painting and drawing, but also with photo, mixed media, mini installations and performance. My main theme of interest is how image and color communicate, intensify and create experiences of life.
