Single Bed 90*200

The project explores what life looks like for men who live alone. 

In Denmark: 

  • 45% of all unskilled men live alone.

  • The 25% most vulnerable men have a life expectancy approximately 10 years shorter than the 25% most privileged men, and 13 years shorter than the most privileged women.

  • Men have a suicide rate that is about three times higher than that of women.

  • Each year, around 5,000 men in Denmark die before reaching the retirement age of 65 — about 2,000 more than women.

  • Men visit the doctor less frequently than women.
