BIOGRAPHY

Nina Canell (b. 1979 Växjö, Sweden) currently lives and works in Berlin. Her work seeks ways to address sculpture as a restless form with fleeting properties. Relating spatial and structural concerns to that elusive fabric which constitutes the melancholic nature of being, the work facilitates a place in which matter and non-matter hold hands through carefully balanced sculptural happenings.  In Mist Mouth, Canell employs ultra-sonic frequencies in order to evaporate small bodies of water which appear out of the gallery floor, while A Handful of Dust concretises a gentle experiment concerning hollows and solids.
 
Recent exhibitions include solo shows at Museum fur Moderner Kunst - Mumok, (Vienna), Konrad Fischer Galerie / Barbara Wien Galerie, (Berlin), Douglas Hyde Gallery (Dublin), Hamburg Kunstverein (Hamburg) and group exhibitions at MoMA (New York), Moderna Museet (stockholm), Manifesta 7 – The European Biennial of Contemporary Art (Trentino), Nought to Sixty, Institute of Contemporary Art (London) and The 7th Gwangju Biennale (Gwangju).

Nina Canell is represented by Mother’s Tankstation (Dublin), Galerie Barbara Wien (Berlin) and Konrad Fischer Galerie (Duesseldorf / Berlin).
