Projects[edit]

  • Possible Relatives: Photos taken in the flats of people who have died in their homes between the 1920s-1960s but whose body have only been discovered between June 2002 to July 2003. In the newspaper, most receive an obituary that reads, "Man/Woman deceased. Any possible relatives are asked to contact... as soon as possible."[3]
  • Dogwalk: A photo project where Enghoff walked everyday from November 1, 2006 – October 31, 2007 from Copenhagen Central Station to Heaven Express, a homeless shelter, and took pictures. On days she couldn't go, her friends went and collected objects which she photographed later.[4]
  • Migrant Documents: A photo project concerning the harassment faced by undocumented immigrants at national borders.[5]
  • Seven Years: Photos of seven anonymous women from the Middle East, Eastern Europe, Asia and Africa who are more susceptible to discrimination and harassment in the Danish social system due to their status as non-western females.[6]
