Eva Koch
NoMad
(1998)
Kalundborg Kommune 14.11.2025-14.12.2025
Description
Along a narrow pier, people walk from nothing toward nothing. Their movement suggests a purpose or a destination beyond the frame, into the unknown. NoMad (1998) captures a shared passage through a shifting landscape, a wild sea that at times washes over the pier and interrupts the path ahead. The work brings us into dialogue with something fundamentally human, about finding one’s way across unstable ground.

About the host
As host, Kalundborg Municipality wishes to make art a visible part of the public space and to create a place where people can pause, reflect, and let their thoughts wander for a moment. The large outdoor screen in Havneparken has been made available to bring art closer to people in their everyday lives. Havneparken is an open public space and a natural meeting point by the harbour, where many pass through during the day. With the video installation on the big screen, we introduce a new way of experiencing art in Kalundborg. Havneparken becomes an informal exhibition space that invites both locals and visitors to engage with art in their daily surroundings.
