Shifting Grounds is a group exhibition and a magazine made by the 11 fourth term students. During a workshop in the spring 2025, the students have worked on individual stories in images and texts. Back at DMJX, the students have designed an exhibition and created an exhibition magazine that is part of Copenhagen Photo Festival 2025.

The Shifting Grounds exhibition opened Friday evening, June 13, 2025 and will be open till June 18, 2025. For the opening, around 500 guests visited the exhibition. Martin Parr, who is also exhibiting at Copenhagen Photo Festival, came to opening of the exhibition, where he took time to visit every student’s display and asked about the education and the stories.
After Martin Parr’s tour he was photographed together with the students and made a group picture of them.

The exhibition and magazine are made by:
Rebecca Krogh
Frederik Kongsgaard
Amalie Haun
Vikki S\u00f8holm
Kasper Krupsdahl
Tobias Nielsen
Peter Maunsbach
Loui Pedersen
Dicte S\u00f8nnichsen
Signe Bech S\u00f8holt
Anders Lindstr\u00f8m Berker<\/p>\n\n\n\n
