Galleri Christoffer Egelund is proud to present the exhibition “As I Remember” (“Som jeg husker det”) by Danish artist Michael Á Grømma. The exhibition consists of 25 new paintings, a large installation and various linoleum prints. The production of the works has been supported by the Danish Arts Foundation (Statens Kunstfond) & the Poul Johansen Foundation.

Grømma offers a deeply moving look at the fragile nature of memories, the way we carry our past into our present, and the way we live with the memories of the deceased. Grømma is the sole guardian of the family's collective stories and memories. Through his paintings, he navigates the weight of this responsibility and explores his childhood in Odsherred: a place and time that now only exists in his mind. His painting style almost eschews the precise straight lines and instead employs a fluid, vibrant aesthetic that recalls the way we remember the past: slightly out of focus, partly naive renderings of spaces, interiors and views, coloured by emotions that acknowledge the distance that time has created.
