The artistic practice of Nanna Elvin Hansen (b. 1989, DK) moves in the murk between art and activism. Building audio and film projects via local, collaborative processes, her works unveil structural violence that impacts on human rights and displacement.
For her first grand-scale institutional show to date, Hansen’s speculative forensics track Nordic colonial excavation, questioning Scandinavia’s largely unexposed structural use of extraction and its ongoing consequences. In a new, complex installation weaving film and sound, Hansen summons the post-human voices of the soil, ground, and geological layers as material witnesses to speak back at Nordic territoriality.
