An Act of Remembrance

An artistic investigation by composer Karoline Skriver and painter Ulla Lundsgart

Trailer for the piece “My Parents home” by artist Ulla Lundsgart and composer Karoline Skriver 

We collect memories of moments that reached beyond the private or biografical experience and sense of the world. Moments of instinct, unity and transformation – where the soul looked out upon the world.

Rum af erindring is an ungoing proces between the two artists and their audience developing and creating different pieces. We see Rum af erindring as a darkroom developing different peoples´ memories from childhood, including the artists´ own – thus becoming a collective act of remembrance, expressing a sum of memories. Memories of a speciel kind  – where a more poetic, intense and sensorial awareness was present in the otherwise everyday life of childhood. We are seeking to express both the individual recollection and the common denominator of these kinds of memories.
