Lea Porsager is part of the group exhibition: There Should Have Been Roses at HFKD, HUSET FOR KUNST & DESIGN in Holstebro, Denmark.
The exhibition is curated by Bizarro, displaying artworks by Lea Porsager, Chino Amobi, and Ursula Reuter Christiansen. Inspired by J. P. Jacobsen's "There Should Have Been Roses", the exhibition reimagines an indoor garden landscape. This unique display explores the symbolism of flowers in the artists' works, drawing from Jacobsen's short story.
By treating art as a synthetic form of nature, the exhibition invites the viewer to traverse a literary garden. Here, they can immerse themselves, find sustenance, and contemplate the complex interplay between reality and artistic representation. This exploration offers a multifaceted experience, navigating the spectrum between fear and flourishing.
The exhibition is on view until 10.03.2024.
