Sophia Kalkau (born 1960) is a Danish artist, who works in a variety of media including writing, photography, sculpture and installation.
[1][2] In the center of Kalkau's art stands a critical, open dialogue that researches vocabularies of material and form around the female body through a photographic work.
In a repetitive act of merging, binding and combining human figures and geometrical objects Kalkau formulates an artistic narrative of surface continuity and spatial organization.
A key characteristic of her oeuvre is a conceptual approach to contemporary sculpture that she serially explores through her own body.
Kalkau's interest in physical, cognitive and perceptive transitions materializes frequently in a scenographic performative gesture that she records through serial photographic prints.
