Ingeborg
Tysse
Ingeborg Tysse (b. 1992, Stavanger Norway) is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice takes on the form of sculpture, installation, weavings, costumes, video and text. She creates sculptural bodies bearing traces of historic and contemporary myths, feminism and environmental concerns. Her work often unfolds in scenographic installations featuring complex creatures exploring a state between reality and fiction. When merging organic and synthetic materials with craft techniques, Tysse thematizes the history of traditional craft and forms new hybrid meetings. Central in her process is working with humor and seriousness side by side, approaching her surroundings through an animistic perspective and a method of care and conservation.
Tysse recently graduated with an MFA from the Art Academy in Bergen, holds a BFA from the National Academy of the Arts in Oslo, Textile Department and from the Art Academy in Iceland. Recent solo and group exhibitions include is this is personal at Bergen Kunsthall (2024), Phantom Gut at L21 Gallery in Palma de Mallorca, Spain (2024), SKRØMT at Hordaland Kunstsenter (2023) and Shared Imaginations at Titanikas in Vilnius, Lithuania (2023).
