Hedvig Koertz

sculptuur - installatie

Employing versatile media such as installation, sculpture and drawing, the work of Hedvig Koertz repositions spacial points of view and negotiates the value and role of surrounding materialities and objects. Specifically, her work and research process explores the difficult relation between interiority, surface level and exteriority: focusing on how understandings of this relation influence design and how design, in turn, shapes the body. Her practice most often entails a site specific approach with a strong sensitivity toward the historical context and atmosphere of a place with attention to architectural detail. Hedvig is founder and caretaker of an other world project space in Rotterdam Carnisse. In collaboration with artists Jake Caleb and Ari David, she facilitates, hosts and programs events and exhibitions with a focus on experimentation, observation and dialogue.
