What happens if you let a group of New York City design students build your Sankt Hans bonfire? 🔥

The bonfire is an essential part of the Danish midsummer celebration Sankt Hans. A week ago, when the Consulate General set the scene for the summer celebration, we had a bonfire out of the ordinary.

While open fire on a Midtown rooftop was not advised, that didn’t hold us back. Instead we found an ally in the Parsons School of Design. This semester, a group of students were working with rituals from around the world, and our Danish Sankt Hans proved to be the perfect muse.

After our colleagues Matthias Agner Rasmussen and Esther Kirkegaard Thye-Petersen presented them with the Danish rituals, the students went to work. Their resulting work was the center of attention at our Sankt Hans celebration.

Thank you to professors Otto von Busch and Laura Nova as well as the students for bringing this creative vision to life! taken in Denmark House in New York by @parsons_integrateddesign

Each object and piece of furniture is handcrafted out of natural materials including wood and leather to pull me back into these memories through tangible, tactile surfaces and textures.

IWGBAE “_______ _”
A (sneak peak into my) 322 page artist book.
March 2025 - May 2026

Neither black nor white, the spectrum is what this documents. “I Was Grey Before I Was Anything Else” is a visual exploration of the Grey. This series of photographs capture the liminal spaces of the everyday. The mundane, the neutral and the ordinary.

We often remember experiences in the extremes of black and white, such as glee or grief, moments that feel intense on two different ends. But much of it happens to exist in the middle.

*New York City is Grey. Scaffoldings are Grey. October is Grey. School Uniforms are Grey.*

[This is no dull or neutral Grey. This is warm and radiant Grey.]

It’s been over a year in the making. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of this, in every way.
