From summer 2022, ARoS presents the exhibition Jakob Kudsk Steensen: Berl-Berl with the young Danish artist Jakob Kudsk Steensen (born 1987). Over the course of a year, Kudsk Steensen has meticulously photographed a wetland near Berlin. Animals, plants and insects have been captured by the lens of the photograph with hyper-realistic detail, after which Kudsk Steensen has incorporated them into a monumental and immersive installation where a 3D virtual world opens up on large LED screens.
With this exhibition, ARoS wants to provide a unique opportunity to get acquainted with Kudsk Steensen's ambitious artwork Berl-Berl, which forges a scientific, hypnotic and meditative link between a deep knowledge of the prehistoric landscape, a climate-conscious present and a possible future. All with nature's own seductive sounds and images.
Reviews
It's an impressively beautiful installation of the cool work in the equally cool and slightly industrial setting of ARoS in Aarhus
Politiken
...the museum's almost minimalist set-up provides space to cultivate the living in a beautiful and sensuous layout.
Jyllands-Posten
The best revelations are hard to comprehend. Berl-Berl is one such entity

It's overwhelming! ... The most striking thing is how sensuous it all is.
