Jesse Darling The Long Way Around Roskilde Festival, Roskilde, DK 28 June — 5 July 2025

With the installation The Long Way Around at Roskilde Festoival, Jesse Darling transforms the hill near the dancefloor into a large-scale circular installation that spirals up to a viewing and meeting point at the hill's summit. He challenges the festivalgoer's conventions of what is considered possible and normal – a challenge that exists both in our imagination and as a concrete, real-world practice. The installation looks like an oversized wheelchair ramp and is designed to be accessible. The artwork makes it easier for wheelchair users to reach the top and offers "a long way around" for others seeking access to the top of the hill—an alternative, slow, and sensuous route to the summit.
