Skulpturbiennalen Interdimensionale at Gammelgaard, Herlev

More than 40 Danish contemporary artists participate in INTERDIMENSIONALE II, curated by Søren Brøgger and Søren Hüttel. The exhibition emphasizes denser installations in the park around Gammelgaard, allowing the art to be experienced outdoors even after opening hours and in the evening.

INTERDIMENSIONALE II showcases a diverse range of contemporary artists working three-dimensionally and sculpturally, focusing on spatial and physical spaces. The artworks are arranged throughout the park and terrain surrounding the courtyard, with some displayed indoors.

The exhibition highlights a renewed interest in sculpture, demonstrating artists' special interest in different materials and the encounter between humans and their environment.

 

Mille Kalsmose showcases Collected Family using raw materials illustrating the human condition in a concentrated object form. Her work features expressions with antique handmade glass plates that allow the sun and wind to interact with the figures, creating a dynamic and ever-changing visual experience.

The work explores themes of personal identity and the connections between self, family, and the cosmos. The iron figures, with their anthropomorphic forms, can be associated with family members of varying heights and shapes. Kalsmose explores family not only as a social unit but as a metaphysical one. The work suggests that identity is neither fixed nor isolated but shaped by everything around and before us. It reminds us that we are part of systems we both form and are formed by—and that listening, at its deepest, is an act of relational recognition across distance, scale, and time.
