SÚGA


Hansina Iversen

January 27 - March 3, 2024


The exhibition title SÚGA, which is related to the Danish word suge [suck], a verb denoting an activity, but in the Faroese context the word is used about nature - about the slow, rhythmical movements of the sea close inshore, where there is a tense relationship between surface and depth, a kind of calm before a storm or the cool draft before the swells hit the rocks. 


Read the essay by Kinna Poulsen in Danish or English.


The exhibition was generously supported by City of Copenhagen Council of Visual Arts, Danish Art Foundation, Faroese Culture Foundation, Loftbrúgv, and Valby Lokaludvalg.
