Jesper Aabille

(Denmark)

My works covers multiple medias: social and urbane interventions, sculptures as well as drawings and text-oriented pieces of work. The common thread within these is the focus on social life, whether it is solutions to mundane problems by making bridges to avoid stepping in a puddle, cooking a fried egg on self-destructive wooden kitchen sculptures, or the refinement in illustrating a practical act, for example, making an open-faced sandwich.

I graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts with a MFA in 2006. Exhibited in a variety of venues including the Museum of Contemporary Art in Roskilde (DK), U-turn 2008 in Copenhagen (DK), MomentumKunsthall in Moss (NO), the Armory Show 2012 and holds an assistantship with Ilya and Emilia Kabakov in New York 2005.
