The photographic series on the inside walls of the sculpture is based on a performative dinnerparty, that took place in my home. Five friends came over for Dinner. Before the guests could enter the dinner, I painted horns on their foreheads.

The performative act og the “horned”-dinnerparty was to resemble and contemplate over traditional family dinners and the difficulties which often comes along.

The construction of the scupture is so, that the spectater cannot come close to the pictures. You are outside of the dinnerparty, as if you were peeking through the window into a theater of the family.
