Benjamin A. H. Harpsøe (b. 1986). Wall-mounted relief with fragments of symbols of different cultures, including a Sumerian figure. Tin, concrete and 3D-print in plastic. Unsigned. H. 49. W. 42 cm.
Benjamin A. H. Harpsøe's sculptures explore the agency and energy of objects, and thus challenge the contradiction between subject and object. He uses modern production tools such as 3D printing and scanning to create complicated sculptures that blur the boundaries between the natural and the artificial. In his latest work, Harpsøe deals with his upbringing in Christiania from a slightly squeezed position between society's invisible hierarchy and the external pressure from the Danish state.
Benjamin A. H. Harpsøe holds a Master of Fine Arts from Malmö Art Academy, a BFA from the Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten, The Hague, and participated in a year-long residency at the Royal Institute of Art, Stockholm.
He has exhibited at Kunsthal Charlottenborg (DK), Galleri Ron Mandos (NL), Ta·da (DK), pro tempore.art (DK), Indebt Gallery (NL), OK Corral (DK), OUTPOST Gallery (DK) and I would die for anything (DE), among others.
