The practice of Vilhelm Christensen (1984, NO) moves freely between sculpture, installation, intervention, architecture, moving image and sound, working in the context of spaces, places, and their material narratives. Trained in both fine art and architecture, he works across the boundaries of visual and applied art, object and space, individual and collective works.
He has exhibited individually and collectively at institutions such as The National Museum Norway, Henie Onstad Art Center, Oslo Architecture Triennale, Munch Museum, Kunsthall Oslo, Oslo Pilot, Galleri 0047 and Galleri Rom. As an architect and designer, he has collaborated with the Munch Museum, Galleri F15, Kunstnernes Hus, OsloBiennalen and Galleri Haaken, to name a few. In 2014 he was awarded the Anders Jahre Prize for Young Artists. He is included in the collection of the National Museum in Norway. Previously he has worked in Rem Koolhaas’ architecture and research studio OMA/AMO in Rotterdam and was co-founder of the architectural practice Superunion Architects from 2011 to 2016.
