THE PLACE I WILL HAVE LEFT - LENA DITTE NISSEN

“Identifying with cannibalistic diets and moralities to enclose myself as an ever-changing unity of hunger, lost appetite and a vision of my future flesh.”

Close to the Rio Catatumbo, close to the border to Colombia, the most lightnings in the world strike down. Nearly every night in an area of about 100m2 you can witness hour-long thunderstorms. The people living in the area have not only experienced natural violent forces throughout their lives, but have also been in-between armed conflicts between Colombian para-military, guerrilla and Venezuelan military and organized crime.
