Afgangsprojekt
Dreamt for lightyears in the belly of a mountain
For my MA Graduate collection i was inspired by a dream i had during a period of fasting.
I dreamt that I was strolling down a street in a deserted city much like Copenhagen. Not a person was in sight, it was right at dawn and all the curtains were hanging outside the windows.
As i strolled down the pavement all the sheer curtains kept brushing up against my face and they smelled faintly of old men’s perfume.
I entered a house and in the lobby there was a huge bathtub with a large chandelier hanging over it. The chandelier was all covered in wax and there was a small set of stairs leading down to the bathtub, which was also drenched in stiffened wax. In a connected room with black and white checkered floor was a bowl of Anthon Bergh’s marzipan eggs, the chocolate ones covered with a hard pastel coating. Only these ones were broken and larger than they would normally be. I ate one of them and they started growing in my mouth ending up with me vomiting melted chocolate in a never-ending pace.
