Photos: Mikkel Kaldal. Idle Language (2026)Solo exhibition at Center for Kunst og Mental Sundhed. Idle Language&nbsp;centres on the three-channel animated video installation I don’t understand the words you use, exploring experiences of linguistic and institutional alienation within the psychiatry and the healthcare system. The exhibition focuses on the relationship between the individual, bureaucracy, and standardized treatment pathways. The video draws on the logic and aesthetics of platform video games as a metaphor for navigating healthcare. Like a game character moving through a linear world governed by fixed rules and obstacles, the protagonist is confined to predetermined routes, reflecting the limited agency often experienced when seeking care within rigid institutional systems. The exhibition title, Idle Language, refers to the concept of "idle" in video games, where a character remains present within a system but is suspended in a state of waiting or passive progression. At the same time, it points to the institutional language of healthcare - a language that can feel detached from lived experience, reducing patients to passive participants within bureaucratic structures. The video installation is expanded with the work Pat, a sculptural representation of the work’s blob-like/ Pac-Man-inspired protagonist, and the image series The air has a taste of saline water, which explores the labyrinthine logic of healthcare systems and the often impossible task of translating subjective experiences into the language of documentation, diagnosis, and bureaucracy. <img width="7236" height="4826" width_o="7236" height_o="4826" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e27b1652e9fa029939267fbfa50cc3465e030507715853b261b8372f6b6ad894/Nye-Cecilie-2.jpg" data-mid="250045093" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e27b1652e9fa029939267fbfa50cc3465e030507715853b261b8372f6b6ad894/Nye-Cecilie-2.jpg" /> ‘I don’t understand the words you use’ (2024). 3D Animation with sound. <img width="8044" height="5365" width_o="8044" height_o="5365" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fabad6ed1b1affc106de20da97e2de56e4ba0b33429c517d84d08335dc679de6/Nye-Cecilie-4.jpg" data-mid="250045095" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fabad6ed1b1affc106de20da97e2de56e4ba0b33429c517d84d08335dc679de6/Nye-Cecilie-4.jpg" /> <img width="7999" height="5335" width_o="7999" height_o="5335" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6d383c9d727ee8201ec79b8160979f8863fe6c538101ccb9515a1904a031b6ee/Nye-Cecilie-1.jpg" data-mid="250045092" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6d383c9d727ee8201ec79b8160979f8863fe6c538101ccb9515a1904a031b6ee/Nye-Cecilie-1.jpg" /> <img width="7296" height="4866" width_o="7296" height_o="4866" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dabcbfc9a2924194f44cdf06a109136ff807ed8ab5b7a46925dd675b02bc8c93/CeciliePenney_IdleLanguage_Photo-MikkelKaldal-1.jpg" data-mid="250045096" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/dabcbfc9a2924194f44cdf06a109136ff807ed8ab5b7a46925dd675b02bc8c93/CeciliePenney_IdleLanguage_Photo-MikkelKaldal-1.jpg" /> ‘The air has a taste of saline water’ (2026).

The piece uses the duet form from classical opera to create a dialogue between past and present values in healthcare. The exhibition space was covered with a linoleum floor with lasercut engravings depicting a floor plan of a modern hospital, while the duet’s lyrics were projected onto the walls, inspired by classical opera surtitles, forming a kind of poetic karaoke that guides the audience through the narrative. <img width="3000" height="2001" width_o="3000" height_o="2001" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/c79400c2e9f95cdd1e81b734a7e48d17a07a57e83b3f90f9d97f134e5efde02f/foto-mads-holm-nk-platform-01-26-penney-003.jpg" data-mid="247657020" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/c79400c2e9f95cdd1e81b734a7e48d17a07a57e83b3f90f9d97f134e5efde02f/foto-mads-holm-nk-platform-01-26-penney-003.jpg" /> <img width="3000" height="2001" width_o="3000" height_o="2001" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6ab438104dc327407ffe2f08391bd54047ccece8dc46e2adb94f3039ab60d52f/foto-mads-holm-nk-platform-01-26-penney-019.jpg" data-mid="247657026" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6ab438104dc327407ffe2f08391bd54047ccece8dc46e2adb94f3039ab60d52f/foto-mads-holm-nk-platform-01-26-penney-019.jpg" /> <img width="3000" height="2001" width_o="3000" height_o="2001" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9b38f72c2ef97e249b6b3b89f825d64b655188ab0640953e638b40852f35893a/foto-mads-holm-nk-platform-01-26-penney-011.jpg" data-mid="247657024" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9b38f72c2ef97e249b6b3b89f825d64b655188ab0640953e638b40852f35893a/foto-mads-holm-nk-platform-01-26-penney-011.jpg" /> At the finissage of the exhibition, a performance developed in collaboration with performance artist Karoline C.

The work draws on the aesthetics and structure of the computer game genre of “platform games”, where the character moves from left to right, confronting enemies and obstacles, and are often seen from a flat/straight-on perspective with a scrolling background environment.

The radio signal was more than 50.000 times stronger than what had previously been recorded, leading researchers to wonder if it could be a message from aliens. In the installation, the visitor experiences an interpretation of Big Ear's "flat reflector", which captured signals from the sky. An LED screen in the ratio 1:35 is programmed to flash in varying intensities based on data from the time period when "The Wow! signal" was recorded. The light installation is synced with a video of scenes from American sci fi movies that were made in the time period of the Big Ear observatory’s existence from 1963-1998. The video is edited with a code based on the same data as the light installation and depicts different fictional interpretations of first encounters between humans and extraterrestrial beings. <img width="4480" height="6720" width_o="4480" height_o="6720" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/71a78bb4c4ce47b8f2a6ddcecad1158b87efe1a187656145cc78fdfee3584201/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-5.jpg" data-mid="175746565" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/71a78bb4c4ce47b8f2a6ddcecad1158b87efe1a187656145cc78fdfee3584201/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-5.jpg" /> <img width="6646" height="4431" width_o="6646" height_o="4431" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7a8357fda9a657b8b407327c10557fff3b32c497c2353bfae1cf3b88cd1a8370/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-7.jpg" data-mid="175746566" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/7a8357fda9a657b8b407327c10557fff3b32c497c2353bfae1cf3b88cd1a8370/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-7.jpg" /> <img width="6720" height="4480" width_o="6720" height_o="4480" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b4697dab498f2b8c1fe2ae7b3a89c7ad6143d735d5d9d20f681698e2efe743d6/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-1.jpg" data-mid="175746562" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b4697dab498f2b8c1fe2ae7b3a89c7ad6143d735d5d9d20f681698e2efe743d6/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-1.jpg" /> <img width="6720" height="4480" width_o="6720" height_o="4480" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/1bd5ec61413fed99a6541716fb803df62bdfb00bbaab25414ae52b5f5751e5c9/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-3.jpg" data-mid="175746564" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/1bd5ec61413fed99a6541716fb803df62bdfb00bbaab25414ae52b5f5751e5c9/CeciliePenney_kpSPRING_Photo-MikkelKaldal-3.jpg" /> Installation at SPRING 23, Kunsthal Aarhus, April-May 2023 Between the earth and the moon, there is one full tone https://ceciliepenney.com/Between-the-earth-and-the-moon-there-is-one-full-tone Fri, 24 Mar 2023 13:47:33 +0000 Cecilie Penney https://ceciliepenney.com/Between-the-earth-and-the-moon-there-is-one-full-tone Between the earth and the moon, there is one full tone (2022) 6 channel sound installation Duration: 07:33 3D animation, sound Duration: 05:37 <img width="4864" height="3648" width_o="4864" height_o="3648" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/b60e76a0dd686a8b26ec55961cdb19ee668ab865cf2dc63591f9831cb56e7e5f/DSC02864.jpg" data-mid="172954743" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/b60e76a0dd686a8b26ec55961cdb19ee668ab865cf2dc63591f9831cb56e7e5f/DSC02864.jpg" /> Pulsar festival, Udstillingsstedet Q, Copenhagen, 2022 Between the earth and the moon, there is one full tone investigates the philosophy “The music of the spheres” which was formulated by Phytagoras in ancient Greece and later developed by astronomer Johannes Kepler in the 16th century. Phytagoras identified the different intervals of musical tones by deviding a single string into different lengths. He believed that this theory could also be applied to the relation beetween the earth, the moon, the planets and the sun and that tonal intervals excisted in the distances between the celestial bodies, for instance that there was one full tone between the earth and the moon. The work consists of two parts; a 6 voice sound greeting to outer space, and an animation interpretting “The music of the spheres” through a geocentric world view.&nbsp; Are you well https://ceciliepenney.com/Are-you-well-1 Fri, 24 Mar 2023 13:47:33 +0000 Cecilie Penney https://ceciliepenney.com/Are-you-well-1 <img width="4726" height="3376" width_o="4726" height_o="3376" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ea2fbbcb12fcca280f656abf9efd8929c3f1aa4638e576e150dc0cdd31dec25b/_DSC3858.jpg" data-mid="172958395" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ea2fbbcb12fcca280f656abf9efd8929c3f1aa4638e576e150dc0cdd31dec25b/_DSC3858.jpg" /> Kimen, Ørestad Bypark, Copenhagen, 2021 Are you well (2021) Laser-cut acrylic sculpture70x 70 cm.
