Biography

SUPERFLEX is a pioneering artist group established in 1993 by Jakob Fenger, Bjørnstjerne Christiansen, and Rasmus Nielsen. Known for their innovative and collaborative approach, SUPERFLEX explores themes of environmental sustainability, social change, and community involvement. Their work often engages both human and non-human actors to envision urban spaces where all species can coexist. The collective’s practice spans a diverse range of mediums, including energy systems, public infrastructure, immersive installations, and conceptual artworks, challenging the boundaries of traditional art. Recent solo exhibitions include Beyond The End of The World, ICA North, San Diego (2024); There Is No Such Thing As Bad Weather, Le Bicolore, Maison du Danemark, Paris (2022); and Sometimes As A Fog, Sometimes As A Tsunami, Kunsthaus Graz (2021). Their work is held in prominent collections such as Tate Modern, London; Museum of Modern Art, New York; and SMK – National Gallery of Denmark, Copenhagen (SMK). SUPERFLEX was honoured with Denmark’s Crown Prince Couple’s Cultural Award (2021). All three founding members received their Master of Fine Arts degrees from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen (1999).
