THE SECRET GARDEN
The artworks are part of the site-specific, total installation the Secret Garden for Rigshospitalet, the main hospital in Copenhagen, 2023
Site-specific installation
‘Colours, lighting design, and music aim to create a more pleasant environment for patients and their relatives at Rigshospitalet, the main hospital in Copenhagen. The stairwell area leading to the radiation therapy section of the hospital has been transformed into a unique work of art designed specifically for the site. Composer Frederik Magle has created a piece of music that fills the room with a comforting ambience – while Maria Dubin’s sensuous film, Woman in Red – The Secret Garden, can be viewed on a screen’.
– Bente Scavenius, art historian
