Nina Canell
Nina Canell (born 1979) is a Swedish sculpture and installation artist.
Nina Canell was born in Växjö, Sweden and educated at the Dún Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology in Dublin, Ireland. She currently lives and works in Berlin, Germany[1]
Canell's sculpture and installations integrate buckets, funnels, neon lights, tree branches, electrical equipment, and other materials. She frequently collaborates with Robin Watkins to create film and video, music, and live performances.[2]
Canell collaborated with artists Linda Quinlan and Clodagh Emoe for the 2007 exhibition Come Together at The Douglas Hyde Gallery. Richard Linklater's film Waking Life, Joanna Newsom's album Ys, and René Daumal's Mount Analogue: A Novel of Symbolically Authentic Non-Euclidean Adventures in Mountain Climbing served as inspiration for the exhibition.[3]
