“Som en del af Københavns byfornyelse dukker stadig flere lejlighedskomplekser op og man passerer ofte områder præget af nedrivning. Bygninger forsvinder næsten ubemærket. Fortiden fjernes og nye formationer opstår. I dette mellemrum, hvor bygninger erstattes af murbrokker, støv, åbne vidder, armeringsjern, beton, mudder og aftryk fra maskiner og arbejdere, kan man opleve midlertidige ukontrollerede strukturerer, hvor landskabet får et nøgent, legemligt udtryk som om vrangen eller indersiden af det der var før, pludselig bliver afsløret. Man kan betragte nedrivnings-processen som et vigtigt stadie for refleksion i omstillingen til det nye.”
På udstillingen “A tribute to the time between” vil Kristine Hymøller skabe en installation som et rituelt mellemstadie mellem nedrivningen af historiske bygninger og opførelsen af ny forskønnende arkitektur. I performative undersøgelser forenes kroppe med make up og arkitekturens rå efterladenskaber.
Kristine Hymøller (f. 1972) bor og arbejder i København. Gennem undersøgelser af materialers stoflighed, arkitektur og performative processer skaber hun værker som stiller spørgsmål ved den hyperkomplekse samfundstruktur og hvordan den påvirker vores samtid og væren. Hymøller har en BFA fra Gerrit Rietveld Academie og MFA fra Sandberg Institute, Amsterdam og har været bosat i Amsterdam som udøvende kunstner indtil 2013, hvor hun flyttede til Danmark. Hendes værker er blandt andet vist på Kunsthalle Exnergasse Wien, Momart Presents All, Amsterdam, Kunsthalle Athena, Athens, Today Art Museum, Beijing, Utrecht Centraal Museum. I September 2018 havde hun sin første hun solo-udstilling i Danmark på udstillingsstedet Spanien 19C i Århus.

“As part of Copenhagen’s urban redevelopment, new housing estates continue to emerge and you often pass through areas of demolition. Buildings disappear almost unnoticed, the past is removed and new structures are established. In this interval where buildings are replaced by rubble, dust, open spaces, rebars, concrete, mud and traces from machines and workers, you can experience temporary uncontrolled structures. The landscape carries a sense of nudity and corporeality, as if what was once the inside are suddenly revealed to the public. One can consider the process of demolition as an important stage for reflection in the transition.”
In the exhibition “A tribute to the time between” Kristine Hymøller creates an installation that functions as a ritual and mediator between the demolition of historic buildings and the construction of new beautifying architecture. Through performative exploration, bodies will merge together with cosmetics and the solid remains of architecture.
