The Dance of the Deaf and Dumb Eye, by

Nikoline Liv Andersen. Photographs by

Nicky de Silva.

There is a dark and sinister un-

dertone to your work. What does

this symbolise?

I like working with contrasts.

Contrasts make things interesting. It

can be contrasts in materials or am-

biguities in the meaning of the story

I’m telling. I am really inspired by

the darkness of our existence. The

major theme of my work is my own

incomprehensibility of the meaning

of life when death is irreversible.

That is something I will keep on

questioning in my work.
