Astrid Kruse Jensen invites the viewer to create his or her own narrative from the fragments of narrative within the photographs, thus creating a new kind of reality. Though often melancholic, the photographs inspire a curious feeling of elation and are a "celebration of reverie as a state of being". In both her "Imaginary Realities" and the more recent "Hypernatural" series of Icelandic swimming pools, faint echoes of Hopper can be heard. Her work touches upon the nature of human existence and does so in a most beautiful way.
