Musicon as a Photography Project

Musicon

It is my ambition to visit the Musicon district in Roskilde frequently in 2023/2024 and with my camera in hand shoot narrative photography in order to document the planned development and progress of the site so far. Pictures will be available for your viewing on this webpage. Have a look at my Musicon photos under GALLERY by clicking on "Musicon".

About Musicon

Ever since Roskilde Municipality bought the former concrete factory and gravel pit, Unicon, in 2003, the ambition has been to create a new neighbourhood like no place else.
No grand ’master plan’ that locks the development of the area in a specific direction has ever been made. Instead, the different projects are created step-by-step in collaboration with citizens, developers, architects, cultural institutions, local businesses and the municipality which means that Musicon is a dynamic site in constant movement and constant change. You might call it urban development by match-making. Because Musicon is more than bricks, stones and concrete. It is also a people-centric approach to urban development where citizens need to play an active part in shaping and engaging with the area where they live and work.
