Daniel Gustav Cramer
Moose, 2017

Odd and ordinary narratives unveil in front of us all the time. At times these events have a lasting impact on us, but more often than not, they are soon forgotten. Through photography, text and sculpture, Berlin-based artist, Daniel Gustav Cramer works with uncovering and deconstructing narratives of places and coincidental encounters. His exhibition at Entrée is a composition of such moments from five places on five nonconsecutive days: a desert, a town, a road, a fjord and a tree. (…) On the way back to Norway, we spotted a large moose on the side of the road. It was about to cross, but once it saw our car, it turned and ran back into the woods. We immediately stopped and jumped out. For a moment, we could see movement between the trees.
