On March 26, 16:30-17:30, HEIRLOOM will be hosting a conversation between visual artist Kirstine Autzen and PhD and founder of (art re.search), Sidsel Nelund, in connection with the publication of the artist book 'How to Become an Archive'.While working on an exhibition inspired by a local historical archive, visual artist and photographer Kirstine Autzen lost her own archive and studio in a fire. The artist book 'How to Become an Archive' is a poetic exploration of the space that emerged in the time that followed.
The conversation will take the artist’s studio and archive as sites of preservation and explore what happens when such spaces disappear. How does one move forward after loss, and what new space might emerge between what has been preserved and what has been lost?
Kirstine Autzen is an artist, photographer, and curator. Her work engages with themes such as growth, memory, loss, and preservation as interconnected aspects of transformation and change.
Sidsel Nelund is a literary and art historical non-fiction writer, para-curator and cyclical agent specialized in knowledge production in contemporary arts.
The conversation will be in Danish.
