 Abnormal is a site specific sculptural project inspired by the life and works of the Norwegian sculptor Hendrik Christian Andersen (Bergen, 1872 - Rome, 1940) and his home studio in Rome, which became a museum in the late 1970s. In 2006, the project won the "Oltreconfine" Art Prize, receiving funding for the creation of three sculptures in styrofoam, plaster and latex, created in collaboration with the artist Mauro Cifaratti: Alice, Hendrik and Hieronymus. A tribute to Andersen and his monumental plaster sculptural groups that never left his "house-museum". The sculptures were presented to the public in an exhibition curated by Francesca Laura Cavallo in the Andersen Museum, in what were once the sculptor's private rooms on the first floor of the building built between 1922-1925 and based on a design by Andersen himself. The award and the exhibition were promoted and funded by Hendrik Christian Andersen Museum Rome, MACRO, DARC, and Università La Sapienza Rome, Italy.
