Uroligt hjerte is an ongoing examination of heart palpitations and the color blue. It has evolved into a video, a zine and an essay.
In the collage Uroligt Hjerte, I explored the color blue through photographs, found images, archival material and thread. With various techniques, I searched for the perfect blue color, which for me expresses restlessness, boredom and insomnia. The photographs were produced by analogue manipulation of color and black and white negatives and prints. The composition was intuitive, and the search for the blue color became a healing process that helped calm my restless heart.The title refers to the medical term for when the heart beats fast or out of rhythm, a physical reaction often associated with stress and anxiety.
