His works are part of the permanent collections at HEART Herning Museum of Contemporary Art, Randers Art Museum and the Danish Arts Foundation, from whom he has been receiving a working grant since 2017.

ABOUT THE WORKS OF ART
Touborg has constructed the two works Take Care and Take Rest (Balancing Act from Where I Stand) for Accura. These are two- and three-dimensional works of art combining artistic and spontaneous brush strokes of vivid oil paint with the use of industrially treated materials and digitally printed surfaces. The textural fragments of the canvasses have been assembled through the use of collage techniques.
