Photographer and visual artist Mads Holm's performance Self-fulfilling Prophecy is a combination of text reading and urban walk among the works in the part of the exhibition HRTLND, which is located in the public space around Prospekt in Vesterbro in Copenhagen.
HRTLND is also the title of Mads Holm's new monographic work, which was published by Disko Bay on April 10, 2025, when the exhibition in Prospekt opened. The performance is followed by an artist talk with Mads Holm in Prospekt.
HRTLND is a series of 81 photographs and 5 perspective essays. Shot in 20 European and North American countries over the last 10 years (2013-2023), the photographs depict situations from modern cities, demonstrations, new technology, architecture, infrastructure, borderlands and a brand new, abandoned urban military training facility in northern Germany. Together, the works create an image of 2025, focusing on an ongoing technological and social upheaval of our international society and public discourse - a pervasive sense of war in the Western world, leading to all kinds of mobilization - geopolitical, military, private, cultural, mental, physical, linguistic.
