Fanny Hellgren (SE)
The art of Fanny Hellgren deals with ideas of time, change, and ephemerality in relation to natural and constructed landscapes. She uses sand, stone, water, resin, concrete, pigment, graphite and paper, and allows the properties and agency of materials guide her process based practice to unexpected sculptural results, where natural science and mysticism merge in always new magnetic and fascinating forms.
Fanny Hellgren (Göteborg, 1992) holds an MFA from the Malmö Art Academy (2021), and has studied at HDK-Valand Academy in Göteborg (2017) and the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna (2016). She has exhibited at venues such as Göteborgs Konsthall, NEVVEN, Göteborgs Stadsmuseum, and Alingsås Museum, and her work is represented in public collections including Göteborgs Konstmuseum, Statens Konstråd, Ståhl Collection, Region Kalmar, and Region Skåne, to name a few. Hellgren lives and works in Göteborg, Sweden.
