The Cult of Oxytocin (book)

The mission of the book, The Cult of Oxytocin, is to hail the Goddess of Oxytocin - the love hormone we as humans inherited from our ancestors. Concurrently offering a zoom into the complex eternal battle between Oxytocin and the survival hormone Adrenaline, these works also suggest indulgence in the rush of love. Ultimately, the work here serve as guides for the visitor to regain control over these forces. An instrumental art experience, if you will.

The book is centered around Ejlerskov's NFT AR sculpture and an exhibition at Nikolaj Kunsthal, DK, consisting of a series of large scale Dream Gradient paintings, a sci-fi Oxytocin meditation with projectors in the church ceiling, a series of huge woven wool carpets and sculptures in polyamide. The coherence of the different media and an overview of the ideas of this body of work, is presented through text and images in this book.
