At 12 noon on Danish Constitution Day, the 5th of June 2022, Sovereign opened in Herthadalen.

Comprising 16 of Kaare Klint museum vitrines redesigned to frame trees by benandsebastian and transposed to a woodland near Lejre, Sovereign includes 16 suggested amendments to Denmark’s national constitution, in which the monarch’s current constitutional role is handed back to nature.

Herthadalen is a wooded kettle hole where the first Danish Constitutional Act Meeting was held in 1854 and where thousands gathered in subsequent decades to hear political speeches and debates.
