Artists
Jeannette Ehlers
Jeannette Ehlers’s art occupies public space by revisiting the history of colonialism and slavery within the Caribbean, a history that has determined the mixed trajectories from which the Trinidadian-Danish artist originates. From the two-dimensional image to corporeal and spatial extension, Ehlers combines photography, video, performance, sculpture, and installation in formally restrained works that are often based on collaboration.
Exhibition produced in partnership with Fonderie Darling.
