Publication: Sometimes We Are Eternal

Madeleine Andersson’s multidisciplinary work across video, sculpture and performance blends together academic theory, scientific instruments, pseudo-scientific excitement, social media and horror films in playful installations.
Her research practice proposes alternative historisations and speculative structures to expose and disrupt the psycho-social dimensions of knowledge production. This eclectic collection of things allows her to investigate the intersection of science and pop culture; their self-experimentation, quest for inner truth and struggle with inhibition.

This digital publication was created in connection with Madeleine Andersson’s residency at Art Hub Copenhagen in the fall of 2025. Thanks to Madeleine Andersson and bluestockings (bs), a collaborative platform and partnership between art historian and curator Karen Vestergaard Andersen (DK) and curator Helen Nishijo Andersen (DK/JP).
