The Clam Box - Come Back to Pleasure |
Solo Exhibition at Gl. Holtegaard 2013. The clam is very much an icon of the rococo period and the pictorial world of the 18th century that also gave rise to the country house of Gl. Holtegaard. As an image of the feminine and mysterious, the clam has now been updated to present-day everyday culture by the artists in the form of a take-away box of mammoth proportions, lined with thousands of clam shells. |
