The Camera and Us
Client: The Royal Danish Library
2021
‘The Camera and Us’ is a permanent exhibition featuring photographs from the Royal Danish Library's collections 1845-2021. The exhibition presents a carefully curated selection of works from the photography collections of library, which contain several million images. The theme is the human being as a motif and the exhibition asks what photography does to our perception of ourselves and our conceptions of each other.
As an exhibition architect, I had the honor of working on the project's final stages, designing exhibition furniture, and overseeing the construction and installation of the artworks and historical objects.
The project was a collaborative effort, involving the expertise of Christina Bach, Head of exhibition at The Royal Danish Library, the rest of the team at The Royal Danish Library, Zetup Art Service and Spektra.
After years in development, the exhibition now stands as a testament to the power of photography and its ability to shape our understanding of the world around us. Come and experience it for yourself at the Royal Danish Library.
