THORGEJ STEEN HANSEN

(DK)

ARTIST PROFILE

Thorgej Steen Hansen lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. He graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2004 and has shown his work in both Denmark and abroad.

The two stamp series (Untitled / standard form) Thorgej Steen Hansen have done for Artstamp.dk – Guest is the latest manifestation of an ongoing series of works in which he stages the same pattern, the same standard form, in multiple ways.

The standard form is produced and presented in various sizes, materials, and medias:

The standard form can be shown as a single unit in the form of a drawing or a painting - or in some other form - but most often, as it is the case with the artstamps in question, it is presented in various series of different color combinations.

The standard form is also used as building blocks in more elaborated installations. And as split seconds of stills in continuous flows of ever changing color combinations in short animated films shown in loops.

The standard form was designed for the first time in 2007 as an element to be used among others in a large decoration assignment which Thorgej Steen Hansen completed together with the artist group Zedamator for the Rhythmic Music Conservatory in Copenhagen in 2008.

The standard form has since then been used by Thorgej as a significant part in both solo and group shows.
