Ane Henriksen “possesses a very rare degree of insight into how to utilize and master her medium." observes Bodil Busk Laursen, Director of the Museum in the exhibition catalog of the same name, Lady Sings the Blues: Ane Henriksen. “In her pieces, there is an internal coherence, where the choice of materials, technique, and structure constitutes a most significant aspect of the work's ultimate expression." Henriksen has been creating pictorial wall tapestries for 25 years. In doing so, the artist “…with sensitive seismographic precision, has caught hold of painful nodes in the world, in nature and in human existence. Through these pieces, she has managed to redeem experiences that nobody evades," Laursen observes.
