Ursula Reuter Christiansen was inspired to make the exhibition while traveling the lunar landscape of Lanzarote – a Spanish island of volcanic origin. The island emerged about 15 million years ago through fiery eruptions and has solidified lava streams and dramatic rock formations. In the exhibition Volcano Woman, the artist imagines female characters to crack through Lanzarote’s dusty ground from another prehistoric state like erupting volcanoes.

Feminism has erupted and ignited the political and ideological landscape throughout history. With the exhibition, Ursula Reuter Christiansen continues to have a significant impact on the development of feminist art in Denmark and internationally.

The exhibition comprises a new series of oil paintings depicting female characters born out of erupting volcanoes, and the gallery floor will be covered in silica stones.
