About the artist

Born in 1973 in Sweden.

Andersson’s work is characterised by a conceptual simplicity and a sharply delineated setting. One of the key elements is an astringent sense of humour which serves to expose power structures and make hierarchies of values visible. Translation is a recurring thematic device and the focus is frequently on ways in which cultural identity is constructed around an idea.
