Martin Erik Andersen (born 1964) is a Danish sculptor who also works with drawings, textiles and sound.
A former professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, he was a recipient of the Thorvaldsen Medal in 2014.
[1] His installations draw on a variety of techniques and materials including textiles, creations on paper, video, sound and light as well as scaffolding, plants and polyester.
Like his other works, there is a relationship between the two-dimensional (the rug) and the three-dimensional (when spread over the couch) as well as between image and object.
[3] Other notable installations include Kingdom of dirt, a complex set of symmetric patterns on a concrete floor mosaic, and More give me more give me more — dette dit dørtrin, a huge upright purple carpet hanging on a steel frame representing a contemporary paraphrase of the Ardabil Carpet.
