Pia Arke died early and did not experience the steadily increasing interest in her art, also on an international level. Arke made significant contributions to staged photography, and she was the first artist to evoke images of the silence that characterized the history of Greenland's and Denmark's colonial relations.

Based on Danish colonial history and her own life, Pia Arke documented places, relationships and dreams that were linked to her dual affiliation to Greenland and Denmark.

With the photograph, Arke staged herself at home in her apartment in Copenhagen. In tableaus with a large print of a Greenlandic landscape as a backdrop: The view from her childhood home in Narsaq. With a Danish father and a Greenlandic mother, Arke's dual affiliation became a driving force. Curious, humorous, but also with a critical stance, she examined identity.
