E L L E - M I E E J D R U P H A N S E N Born in 1958 in Lives and works in , Denmark

Elle-Mie Ejdrup Hansen explores the relationships between mankind and space, as well as the links between body and mind. Her work takes on multiple shapes - drawing, painting, new technologies, monumental site specific installations - and often contains a collaborative dimension. For example, she works with prisoners to conceive an artwork that will greet the visitors upon arrival or with inhabitants of an ill-reputed neighbourhood to literally shine a new light on the place. Her projects - in whichever dimensions - are filled with spirituality and are characterized by a delicate graphic work.
