Excerpt — 13 min. Altarpiece
The Weeping
Saint Pity
Nikolaj Kunsthal Copenhagen, Denmark Feb. 9, 2023 — Jul. 28, 2024 Video, Water, Music & Light Installation 15 × 15 Metre Projection [ Super High End Underground — Group Exhibition ]
The Weeping Saint Pity is a video, water, music and light installation — a 15 × 15 metre altarpiece running 13 minutes, exhibited at Nikolaj Kunsthal, Copenhagen as part of the group exhibition Super High End Underground, on view from February 2023 to July 2024.

The work takes on the existential injustices and despair of everyday life for us in the middle class in the Western world. With Saint Pity we invite you to reflect on the small yet never ending, mild despair and envy of our privileged lives — losing your youth, your neighbour having a second house on the coast, not being able to afford plastic surgery whilst constantly striving to win the 'good life' competition.

Saint Pity weeps for all the therapy sessions that haven't healed our traumas, for all the hours of exercise, esoteric oils, crystals, supplements, massages, ethical organic vegetables, and spiritual awareness that haven't made us happy and slim.
If all of this hasn't fixed you, we invite you to take a tear and spend a moment with Saint Pity — to express your still unresolved feelings of inadequacy and pain.
