Representation matters ..

Representation matters ..

Here is a picture of my oldest son, he asked me to take it.

Minutes before I took this picture we had arrived to the hotel after a long driving trip coming from our Christmas holiday in Paris. Louis came in to the hotel room and the first thing he saw was this painting above the bed .. His tired face lit up and he got so happy and said - Det er jo mig!!! - It is me!!! and then he said, mum take a picture of me and the painting. I felt like stealing it and bringing it home ..

Representation does matter and we should all embrace and make a big deal out of it anytime we can do something about it!

European Future Female DJ summit 2021

Future Female Sound Dj Submit copenhagen 2021

Right after the Pandemic in 2021 and the restrictions in Denmark had just made it possible to open up for people and do bigger gatherings, Future Female Sound gathered all these DJ in Copenhagen and made their first European Female DJ Summit.

Last year Tia Korpe, the Founder and Managing Director of Future Female Sounds, hired me to document their event. This was a two day workshop where women and non-binary DJs from 12 different European countries came together to discuss the challenges and opportunities in the industry. The event was hosted in SOHO, Copenhagen.

Surrounded by talented creative people, encouraging and supporting each other to make a safer space in the DJ industry. Being a fly on the wall documenting everything and at the same time be part of a team that wants the best for everyone was a dream job come true :)
