The Danish artist Pernille Egeskov (b. 1970) lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. Egeskov is educated in 1997 as a costume designer from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts’ School of Design. In 2007, she made her debut as a visual artist at Charlottenborg’s Spring Exhibition and has since worked as a visual artist. With his artistic practice, Egeskov works in a sensual, poetic, and conceptual universe with collages, objects, and installations. The choice of materials ranges from found objects, organic material – such as leaves, soil, plants, wood, and hair – as well as found, aged fabric remnants with traces of wear and lived life, textile objects with intrinsic meanings such as curtains, sheets, coats, and underwear. Her pictorial world is immediately abstract, but the materials, composition and technique of the works give them meaning on several levels. The stories in the works are about everything from our complex relationships to each other, e.g. in couple and family constellations, about the individual in relation to time and society, and about fundamental existential conditions.
