Tina Maria Nielsen takes her starting point in a familiar and expensive artistic material: Bronze. She has made use of a classic bronze casting technique, but her motif is far from classic bronze sculpture – an electric cable from her own studio.
Her work Stream (2014-2016) is characteristic of her production of bronze casts. She takes ’humble,’ overlooked everyday objects and uses the material to raise questions about their normal functionality and visibility. The work enters into a dialogue with visual art (two-dimensional) and sculpture (three-dimensional) – the cable relates to the surface and the wall but, at the same time, sticks out as a relief. The work has a raw form of expression that stands in contrast to the space in which it is placed. Tina Maria Nielsen has been awarded countless honors for her work and several working grants from the Danish Art Foundation. Her work is represented in Danish art museums.Title: | Stream |
