Jeg har betalt den højeste pris (I’ve paid the highest price) – first published in the anthology Hallo jeg er vejret (Hallo I’m the wheater) by Borgen in 2007. The anthology was commisioned by the Danish Ministery of Climate and Energy and all 12 contributing poets where asked to relate to the climate, the enviroment, the global warming in their own way without any editorial intereference. I chose to work in a collage manner, letting different exiting ideological and pragmatic (visual) discourses meet in a spatially organised room.
Actively Repeat It All I + II – first published by Nypoesi.net in 2004. More than a piece of visual poetry it was thought to be a visual critique, using parts of the Norwegian poet Monica Aasprong’s Soldatermarkedet in a comparative reading. First of her and Gertrude Stein’s If I told him/A complete portrait of Picasso. And secondly Soldatermarkedet seen as political poetry commenting on how we use a sign, a flag, a letter, a cross as the symbol of dead human beings. Both works focusing on the use of repetition as method.
