The duo exhibition Axes of the Field is based on craftsmanship, materials and processes that are used especially in the construction industry. Each of the artists also contributes their own works in relation to the theme horizon of the cityscape inspired by the monumental constructions and building processes, which surround us and multiply in the horizon of the cityscape.

Hymøller was inspired by how apartment blocks are manufactured in the factory in individual elements, and then later assembled and mounted on the construction site. She investigated the homogeneous expression of the facades of apartment blocks and their manufacturing processes. Based on this kind of mass-produced construction,  urban planning and the monumentality of apartment blocks, she created works that could be experienced as both two-dimensional and dimensional landscapes or wallpaper.

The works were crafted with colorful makeup palettes that daily are used as a face retouching tool. Contours and textures from the palettes were transferred onto paper or casted in concrete, installed side by side to form a horizon of reliefs. By repeating the imprints on paper and in a sculptural format, patterns are created that emphasize the increase of the population and the growing landscapes of the city.
