Curated for
CHART

For CHART 2025, Frederik Nystrup-Larsen will create a series of paintings and sculptures, centering the planet’s current mass extinction event wherein thousands of species are disappearing extremely rapidly. Nystrup-Larsen’s practice encompasses plant blindness and painting disappearing species as a way of preserving and giving new life to endangered species. This series is hyper-local, focusing on at-risk and extinct species in the area of exhibition. Botanical Gardens are struggling to keep up with and find space for local plants that are disappearing, for this presentation, Nystrup-Larsen plans to collaborate with the Copenhagen Botanical Garden, working with them to identify and preserve hyper-local species for his presentation at CHART.

Before his solo career, he made several exhibitions and collaborative projects with fellow Danish artist Oliver Sundqvist.
