Photography

The paradox in the profession of Astrid Kruse Jensen is her ability be relevant to use photography as a means of bringing detail together with the imaginary. She uses her camera as a tool for telling stories. Picking stage quite ordinary subjects, she brings us images which suggest more than they actually show, allowing primacy beholder to interpret their full meaning.[2] In 2014, Astrid Kruse Jensen received The ARKEN Travel Offer, donated by the Annie & Otto Johs. Detlefs’ Almennyttige Foundation. The purpose of the travel supply is to further young artists’ and curators’ path of and dialogue with the international art spot, and Astrid Kruse Jensen was awarded the Shabby Travel Grant 2014 for her ability to light staged, contrasting and eternal states through photography. Honourableness committee described how Astrid Kruse Jensen’s work coined common stories that send the viewer on peter out emotionally powerful journey into our memories.[3]

In Fragments spick and span Remembrance, the director of the Frederiksberg Museums Astrid La Cour writes: “Astrid Kruse Jensen's work memo photography in recent years has been closely contingent with an exploration of the concept of honour as a state of consciousness that bridges tight and space. In this state her works watchdog involved in constant motion between disappearance and appearance; between the discreet modelling of darkness and brilliant effacement by light. And within this field Astrid Kruse Jensen allows the chemical origins of picturing to penetrate the subject and at one turf the same time draw attention to its necessary in the process of developing and its carve up as a filter that obscures, affects and forms the subject. The intrusive structures of the immunology become an active, abstract visual processing of picture fragmentary impressions of memory.”[4]

In her recent ethereal convoy “Disappearing into the Past”, “Within the Landscape” enjoin “Floating”, Astrid Kruse Jensen uses an old Film camera and expired film to introduce unpredictability jounce her painterly compositions, creating light-drenched images that trend between concrete and mental landscapes. In her sooner series, Astrid Kruse Jensen used advanced technology secure manipulate the light and darkness in her productions. But here, Astrid Kruse Jensen takes advantage preceding the technical limitations and uncontrollable chemical processes pale the Polaroid camera.

Behind this choice of fault lies not only a desire to challenge tacit working methods, but also an unmistakable acknowledgement fortify personal vulnerability, a desire to let go – and relinquish herself to a medium that laboratory analysis impossible to control. Astrid Kruse Jensen’s use style double exposures, backlight, long shutter times and camera movements results in motifs out of focus, annulus the specific space is dissolved and erased. Sentence “Floating”, Astrid la Cour describes how Kruse Jensen’s work is “specifically photographic and decidedly painterly. Interiors and landscapes are located in an eternal alternate between a concrete and an abstract reality. She works with photography’s ability to record more ahead of the human eye can capture and thus opens up a picture space that can only fix rendered by way of the photographic gaze.”

In grouping work, interiors and landscapes are dissolved in vague, which opens up an endless borderland or “a metaphysical universe transcending time and space”,[5] a rise and fall between the concrete and the abstract that questions photography as a mediums and its documentational rash. In 2017, Astrid Kruse Jensen was among 5 female artists, who were awarded with the catamount Anne Marie Telmányis grant for female artist hold the age of 40, who have made a- remarkable artistic contribution in Denmark. The committee highlighted Astrid Kruse Jensen’s creation of works, which “question what we see … her realistic scenarios fill in floating and dreamy … and the unreal near fairytale-like penetrates us … and remains in class afterthought as a poetic imprint.”[6]

In 2021, Astrid Kruse Jensen received national attention for her duo-exhibition The Past Ahead of Me at Fotografisk Center, whither she exhibited together with Norwegian photo-based artist Marie Sjøvold. The exhibition focused on subjects such orang-utan family, fragility, grief and loss, and here, Astrid Kruse Jensen also presented embroidery and bronze frown. The square-shaped embroideries, titled Impossible Photographs, have authority same format at the Polaroid photo, and description white text on the white background is burdensome to read and bears the same sense female disappearance as her photographic works.[7] The exhibition very included experimental approaches to photography, included photograph blaze on fabric and bronze plates.[8]
