Maja Li Härdelin ^(SE)

Maja Li Härdelin (b. 1989, Sweden) delves into intricate constructions of analogy. In her work the line between fiction and documentation is very blurry. Härdelin explorations make use of a variety of media, such as film, sculpture and performance. Within the exhibition space, they often extend to installations that juxtapose the familiar comfort of ordinary stuff, through highlighting slightly peculiar elements. The installations often reference everyday scenes subtly altered—like an out-of-place object or an unexpected sound—prompting contemplations of the hidden layers and histories that can be found within ordinary spaces, objects and relationships.
