Exhibition opening at H.C. Andersen House

The Water Drop exibitition “Life on Land” opened yesterday at H.C. Andersen House, curated by the Danish Young Curators.

The process began this spring when the Young Curators received artwork from two Water Drop workshops in Odense. In addition, they were given minor curatorial exercises before the summer holidays.

After summer vacation, they began curating the artworks from the workshops in collaboration with a curator from Gallery Brandts. This collaboration resulted in a model of the exhibition and a decision on the content.

The official opening of the exhibition took place between 12:00 and 13:00 on the 4th of November 2022. In connection with the opening of the Water Drop exhibition the two Water Drop workshops were offered some tailored workshops at the H.C. Andersen House:

  1. Insect workshop: A creative workshop to create three-dimensional insects with simple materials.
  2. Think like nature: Dialogic workshop where students imagine themselves as objects in nature and attribute feelings and purpose to them.

After the workshops, the classes participated in the official opening of the Waterdrop exhibition.

In continuation of the public program of the opening day, you can create your own insects in the studio during the exhibition period. This is done to ensure a holistic experience and coherence between the exhibition and the H.C. Andresen House.
