Jenifer is a 27 year-old production manager, photographer, video producer, academic and activist, whose work focuses on education, migration, environmental issues and human perception.
Graduated with a degree in English and International Studies from Aalborg University in 2018 and an MA in Cognitive Semiotics & Aesthetics from Aarhus University in 2020. She spent most of 2020 researching and writing her MA dissertation with the title “Climate Migration in Danish News Media: Towards the Recognition of ‘Climate Refugees’ in Denmark”. During her studies, she worked closely with Kvindemuseet (The Women’s Museum) to develop an art and photography project with the aim of highlighting stories of refugee women in Denmark.
Her aspiration as a photographer is to document and highlight the stories of refugees in their host countries as well as write and produce educational content for the popular science audience.
“Currently, there is a disconnection and a misunderstanding towards people forced to flee their homes. Through visual and written storytelling, this gap can be mended.”
Projects
mellemfolkeligt samvirke
The Danish government has for years threatened to deport Syrian refugees based on the inaccurate claim that the country is safe. I collaborated with Mellemfokeligt Samvirke to document the social outrage displayed in response.
Hotel Oasia
We collaborated with Hotel Oasia in Aarhus to create an e-learning course on becoming a professional housekeeper. We worked alongside the hotel’s housekeeping manager Ionela as well as the hotel manager Rasmus to establish the grounds for the project.
Yachten
We developed a short film about the power of brotherhood in the face of born or chosen family.
en FØLELSE af ANGST
We were asked to visualise the elements through which humans have common memories of experiences and everyday perceptions.
PEANUTS
In working with continuity in film we made a short story showing the comical constrasts but also similarities between two characters in their daily lives.
