FEEL ME - Beautiful exhibition at Trapholt
Join us on a sensual journey into the world of emotions. Do the feelings belong in the body or in the mind? Can technology and science affect our emotions? Can you create a space where everyone feels comfortable? Experience an international special exhibition that, with large installations and sensual works, challenges our understanding of the nature and importance of emotions in the 21st century.
Through art, FEEL ME focuses on emotions in a time when everything develops faster than ever.
FEEL ME is the largest international exhibition Trapholt has had to date, and presents Danish and international stars such as DRIFT, Daniel Wurtzel, Liz West and Cecilie Waagner Falkenstrøm. Here you can experience works by 27 artists and designers, several of whom are being shown on Danish soil for the first time.
Look forward to the five meter high installation "Air Fountain", where transparent silk floats in an intimate dance to music, created by the American artist Daniel Wurtzel, who became famous at the 2014 Winter Olympics. The exhibition at Trapholt is a unique chance to see his extraordinary work.
Also experience two major works from Dutch DRIFT: "Fragile Future", which unites nature and technology in a luminous network of real dandelion seeds, as well as the 'living' installation "Shylight", where large white flowers open from the ceiling.
The prize-winning Danish artist Cecilie Waagner Falkenstrøm exhibits a work that imagines a future where artificial intelligence takes care of care tasks when patients are nearing the end of their lives.
Australian Nina Rajcic has, with the help of artificial intelligence, created a mirror that reads guests' moods and generates unique poems. American Heather Dewey-Hagborg shows her laboratory-made vaccine, which can potentially make people more amiable.
The exhibition also includes an anxiety-provoking giant balloon that is slowly inflated by China's Zhou Xiaohu, as well as a large neon installation entitled "Happiness is as brittle as glass" by Luxembourg's Sali Muller.
