Birke Gorm

Working with discarded and residual materials, including scrap metal, cardboard, broken ceramics and coarse jute, Birke Gorm constructs sculptural forms that oscillate between fragility and monumentality. Through processes of collection, disassembly and reconfiguration, her work unsettles distinctions between waste and resource, ruin and value. Engaging with the afterlives of objects, the artist articulates a critical position on systems of production and consumption, while exploring repair and transformation as political gestures.
