Paper Collective joins forces with the acclaimed photo school for the first time this spring. Founder Morten Kaaber explains: “At Paper Collective we want to create a playground for art. A space for creatives from a range of backgrounds to connect, collaborate and create. That is why we are excited to show the works of these talented students.” Fatamorgana, The Danish Photographic School of Visual Arts, works of with photographic imagery through stills as well as moving pictures. The school prioritizes every student’s individual artistic voice. “The students of Fatamorgana have put together an impactful exhibition of artworks which works great together under the theme solar storm but at the same time they are strong enough to stand alone.” Kaaber continues.
Within the exhibition SOLSTORM Fatamorgana examines the possible force, disturbances, and consequences of a solar storm through their visual language. The room is an intense photography and motion picture experience, combined with a soundscape that investigates fragments of an endangered world. The artworks range widely in expression, method, and concept. Each wall of the room mirrors the student’s interpretation of a “before” and “after”, while the sound from the four speakers connected to the videos fill the room and merge the visual works of art as one coherent universe.
