‘Din blinde passager’, which translates as ‘your blind passenger’ – the Danish term for a stowaway, uses fog and lights to restrict viewers’ visual perception as they move through a long narrow passageway, inviting them to find other ways to navigate the space. This installation view shows the artwork as displayed at ARKEN Museum of Modern Art, Copenhagen, in 2010.

Upon entering this long, narrow corridor, visitors are temporarily blinded by brightly illuminated fog that requires them to rely on other senses to orient themselves. As they progress through the corridor, they move through zones of different hues. ‘Blind passenger’ is the Danish expression for a stowaway.
