Sleepwalking Into the Abyss
CHART Art Fair, Copenhagen (DK)
Aug 26 — 28, 2022

  • For CHART 2022, NEVVEN presents a solo booth by Swedish artist Olof Marsja, presenting his largest freestanding sculpture to date juxtaposed to two new iterations of his signature-style cast glass wall sculptures, in a monumental installation that brings to the forefront the complex and multi-layered narratives embodied by his sculptures. Blending contemporary aesthetics with an interest in design, fashion, traditional techniques and crafts, Marsja effortlessly mixes a personal and fascinating perspective with identity politics, and the culture and stories linked to his Sámi background.
