Ville Karlsson

About the Artist

Ville Karlsson (b. 1994, Kajaani) works with things whose deepest essence lies in questioning the art object; the ontological questions of art and its definition.

His recent practice examines the social, economic, and intermedial conditions of exhibition-making; metamodernism, agency, authorship, and the placement of “non-artistic” gestures within an exhibition setting.

He is interested in the potential of artistic sensitivity in everyday life, within which presence and meaning-making feel more essential.
