Rhoda Ting & Mikkel Bojesen (AU/DK)
Rhoda Ting & Mikkel Bojesen's works focus on methods of listening, relating and co-creating with species that are other than human, such as fungi and bacteria, as well as synthetic or robotic life forms. Bringing together science, technology and industry, their work investigates speculative futures, and explores philosophies that can move us collectively and affirmatively beyond the anthropocene. Drawing inspiration from contemporary disciplines such as queer ecology, post humanism and vitalist materialism, they seek to apply and revise ways in which humans participate in a dynamic web of planetary interconnectedness.
The artist duo is formed by Rhoda Ting (b. 1985; AU) and Mikkel Dahlin Bojesen (b. 1988; DK). Their work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at GLAS - Museet for Glaskunst (Ebeltoft; DK) and Politikens Forhal (Copenhagen; DK) and is included in the permanent collections of Københavns Kommune (Copenhagen; DK) as well as JP.Politikens Hus (Copenhagen; DK).
