Experience "Re-Programmed Relations" at Horsens Art Museum

Between February 12 – June 26, 2022, you can experience Mille Kalsmose's "Re-Programmed Relations" within a larger collection exhibition called "New Acquisitions" at Horsens Art Museum!

Exploring the Depths of Identity and Connectivity

"Re-Programmed Relations" is an installation featuring a group of sculptural elements consisting of iron fragments merged with found objects made of wood, metal, and plaster stucco. In this work, Mille Kalsmose explores the absence of hierarchies between humans, objects, and physicality, as well as their internal connectedness, from animated objects to the objectification of humans. She references society’s involvement with social media and other new technologies, focusing on “surface.”

The works engage the architectural, spiritual, and social realms through a mixture of organic, industrial, found, or untraditional elements connected in a network of objects, all linked in time and place. These sensational moments experiment with various materials and specific performances, enhancing access to another syntax in understanding how we are.

A Family of Sculptural Elements

The works have taken the form of three-dimensional objects that appear family-like, as something that fills our everyday life without completely being so. In her practice, Kalsmose tries to grasp the ways in which identity as a concept is developed and compounded by continuous interaction between the individual, others, and its inherent potential to transform itself from one thing to another.
