Greenland Institute of Natural Resources

Exhibition design, graphic artwork & project management

I created typography design, infographics, and images for all exhibtion material including signage and artistic decoration. Also a book was designed with information about the full exhibition in details in Greenlandic (Kalaallisut) and English.

A custommade exhibition grid system was designed with flexibility to reposition and carry the load of the glas montres with scientific artifacts collected at The Natural History Museum of Denmark. I was also responsible for the production and installation of contemporary artworks for the young artist Bolatta Silis-Høegh, and finished the very last artwork for renowned, and now late Greenlandic artist Anne-Birthe Hove (2012).

The exhibition ties the building together and inspires the visitor to explore the architectural landscape while learning about the history of science in Greenland starting with the Danish cleric and Naturalist Otto Fabricius. It displays his outstanding work as a humanist and scientist that was the basis of the world-famous Fauna Groenlandica, published 1790.

It also displays the “Plankton Cloud” by 10 Tons which creates an impressive view into the otherwise invisible microworld of the sea and the shell of the world´s biggest bivalve, that lived approximately 83 million years ago.
