An artistic earthwork consisting of three fragments, carried out in divergent heathland locations; one on the island Læsø, and two in Jutland. The fragments are intended to uncover the deep, layered histories embedded within the remnants of Danish heathland landscapes. A memorial that not only marks this moment in time, but also honours the ongoing interspecies processes it is part of. While the memorial already exists in the landscape, the work acts as a ma(r)king of time, making it visible and unveiling its being.
The earthwork was created in collaboration with the research project 'Anthropogenic Heathlands (ANTHEA)' led by archaeologist Mette Løvschal (Aarhus University / Moesgaard Museum)
