Dronningen er død
(The Queen is Dead)
Udstillingsstedet Sydhavn Station
20th Sep – 20th Oct 2019
For her solo exhibition at Sydhavn Station, Dronningen er død (The Queen is Dead), Anna Walther has created a number of works that play with the relationship between the private and the public space, between the deliberate and the random, between tragedy and farce.
The works are staged on an institutional wall-to-wall carpet, referring to the history of the exhibition site as a former office for DSB, the Danish State Railways. Through a series of performative interventions in public space Walther has collected materials for the eclectic installation: pigments sampled from the iconic yellow wall of Assistens Cemetery, cooked bones scavenged from KFC and fabric from S-train seats that now adorns a steel throne.
A soundscape consisting of a 24-hour mash-up of the evil Lord Tengil’s anthem from The Brothers Lionheart and a group of healing crickets envelops the space.
