Nellie Lindquist

Nellie Lindquist works with video and sculptural elements, using fiction as a critical tool to examine how ideologies are staged in form, narrative and infrastructure. Drawing on her training as a sculptor, she approaches the moving image through the use of cinematic scenes, plastics and pop cultural artifacts. Her previous video project Tower (2024) restages the everyday architecture of an airport as a monument to an ageing modernity through the eyes of a teenager stuck in transit. For Künstlerhaus Bethanien, she will present a new video project in which she takes the prop as a starting point to stage sculptural elements from the video in the exhibition.

Nellie Lindquist earned an MFA from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhagen, with an exchange at Parsons School of Design, New York City (2023).
