The Excavated
In the years from 2006 to 2009 Helene Høie had her home in the island of Læsø in the Kattegat sea between Denmark and Sweden. Having plenty of space and time in abundance, it was during this period the whole series of sculptures named THE EXCAVATED came into existence. As the name also implies THE PRIMAL came first in 2006, then one by one with THE VISITOR as the last to enter in 2009.
