EArth Mothers (working title)

The Earth Mother Project emerges from a quiet eco‑feminist resistance to the ongoing extraction of bodies, land, and meaning. Through photography, gesture, and relation, I look for cracks in dominant narratives to imagine slower, interdependent ways of being, tender toward the more‑than‑human world we are losing.

Working at the intersection of ecofeminism, cultural transformation, and narrative repair, my practice asks how kinship can become both method and ethic. The body is not an object to be fixed in an image but a living site of relation: porous, cyclical, and vulnerable.

What began two decades ago as an exploration of female self‑image and liberation has deepened into an ecological inquiry into entanglement and kinship—how selfhood, body, land, and other living systems intertwine, mirror and shape one another. 

At this initial stage, trees are the primary element, focusing on rootedness, continuity, and relational awareness. Over time, the project will expand to other elements such as water, soil, and rock, and incorporate text, cloth, and participatory practices.

With this work I intend to create a field and shared spaces for exploration of eco-feminine ideas and wisdom, weaving new narratives and relational practices for being and creating.

Series one: When Women Were Trees

This first series situates the female body in the forest as a site of both vulnerability and resistance. It traces how human and more‑than‑human lives are intertwined, each carrying the imprints of extraction, decay, and renewal.

Women appear as individuals and groups among fallen trees, exposed roots, and decomposing wood—landscapes of rupture that also hold the promise of regeneration. Rather than performance, the images follow gestures of attention, empathy, and mutual care. The forest is collaborator and witness. Trees and women appear as parallel carriers of memory, care, and endurance, holding histories of pruning, exploitation, and recovery. Through these visual dialogues, body and landscape emerge as interdependent fields of meaning, rehearsing other ways of being.

This series is currently on show in the exhibition:
Kvindeblik - Kroppen som kraftfelt / The female gaze - the body as field of power.
Gimsing Kultur og Kunst Center, Struer Denmark. January 10 to March 8, 2026
