Welcome to the Danish Art Workshops

The Danish Art Workshops (SVFK) is an institution under the Danish Ministry of Culture, whose purpose it is to provide working facilities for particularly demanding art works.

At the SVFK it is possible for artists to do work in large formats, which their own studios or equipment cannot facilitate. Artists, designers, craftspeople, and restorers can work here on projects in art and design at the highest level.

ADMIN

22 Nov. – 22 Dec. 2024

Christine Overvad Hansen’s exhibition Admin is based on Greek mythology and the myth of the three “moirs” – the term for the goddesses of fate: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos. The three goddesses spin, measure, and cut the thread of people’s lives and indirectly unfold a narrative about the position of power that lies in being witnesses to each other’s lives.

The archive weaves fragments of memory of 89 locations that functioned as Refugee Asylum Centers and Emergency Aid Centers until 2018.
