Boat people corpses are washed ashore and the reality and human tragedy that takes place far from the Danish coast enter our consciousness.

WE ARE NOT REAL is a memorial where 1:1 sized dolls can be found in different locations in the center of Aarhus City. In a little boat next to the dolls passersby can find fortune cookies with real statements of people who saw the dangerous journey across the Mediterranean as the only way.

Sort/Hvid’s artistic director Christian Lollike has created the concept for the memorial WE ARE NOT REAL in collaboration with Aarhus Festival Director Jens Folmer Jepsen. The dolls are made ​​by Signe Herlevsen.
