Artist Bio

Anders Aarvik is an artist, curator, etcher, and hacker, who studied at Chelsea College of Arts (UK), Royal College of Art (UK), and Funen Art Academy (DK). He seeks to dissolve governing social structures such as power, industry, and binarity. His works span across print, sculpture, installation, performance, text, and computation, constructing worlds and objects that inquire into coexistence through a more-than-human lens. He insists on DIY, DIWO (do-it-with-others), low tech (e.g., permacomputing), and upcycling. The body and the objects related to it serve as an analogy for change and are enacted through machines such as computers and printing presses, in a critical exchange where their infrastructural traces are carefully inspected and redistributed.
