Lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark
Benedikte Bjerre works conceptually with sociological phenomena in a versatile practice focusing on sculpture and installation which reflect on the current state of society. She consistently examines sculptural qualities in relation to the architecture of a given space. The artist continually uses observations from her everyday life, as she engages in how the beholders experience their surroundings.

Born Elsinore, Denmark 1987
Lives and works in Copenhagen
Magnus Andersen draws abundantly from a wide range of art historical and popular cultural references, spanning Flemish still lifes,17th-century baroque and classical music, to color field painting and advertising aesthetics. Andersen renegotiates mundane and easily recognizable signifiers of contemporary visual culture and deliberately exaggerates them to a point of uncanniness. Cultivating humor and seriousness equally, his work engages with an accelerated nostalgia emblematic of post-industrial consumerism.

bio
Born, 1976, Copenhagen, Denmark
Lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark
Marie Lund’s artistic practice arrives from a contemplation on the interdependencies between architecture, space, objects, and bodies. Her sculptural works hold references to existing, functional objects, which she releases from their original use and transforms through tensile material processes into abstract sculptural structures. Often situated in relation to liminal positions, in resistance to sculpture as autonomous object, they activate their environment, encompassing encounters between body and space, and exchange with artworks by other artists. In turning to ideas of hosting and openness, space is given rather than merely occupied. Accordingly, Lund’s sculptures resonate as social as well as spatial frameworks, fostering mutual forms of dependency within exhibition formats.

bio
1976 Born in Aarhus, Denmark
Lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark
As a prominent exponent of an art that emphasises connection, juxtaposition and relationality, Simon Dybbroe Møller’s works engage with the relationship between the weighty materiality of sculpture, and their photographic representation and mediation. Dybbroe Møller explores what sculpture is or can be, in a world that is dictated by the photographic; a world where our economy and attention has shifted from the object to the image. Rather than settling into one medium or style, he continuously probes new territories, moving between film, photography, found objects, sculpture, writing, curating and teaching. Simon Dybbroe Møller was born in Aarhus, DK in 1976 and has been Professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts School of Sculpture in Copenhagen since 2019. He co-runs the exhibition space AYE-AYE and curates the performance series Why Words Now.

Tora Schultz is a Danish sculptor. Her affinity for existing objects is profound as is her way of going about them. Operating in the opaque intersection between producing and preserving, her methods include shaping, bending, burning, disclosing. A preoccupation with meticulous treatments of hard materials is often seen in her work, with an equal devotion to bare their internal qualities while exposing functional assets and shortcomings. Tora Schultz applies a discrete insistence on the handmade and the wordless.

Young-jun Tak’s practice examines socio-political, cultural and psychological mechanisms that shape belief systems and often exposes the human body in the context of polarizing norms and conventions. The work unfolds as sculpture, installation and video work. Tak studied English Language and Literature, and Cross-Cultural Studies in Sungkyunkwan University in Seoul, South Korea.
