Olga Benedicte is a visual artist based in Copenhagen. She graduated from The University of the Arts, Helsinki, and the Jutland Art Academy in Aarhus, completing her studies in 2018. Her artistic practice encompasses sculpture, sound, and performance

Olga Benedicte’s artistic practice examines the body as the foundation of our consciousness and presence. Her works operate in the affective spectrum, where sensuality, nonverbal communication, and various forms of presence and consciousness are expressed through her works.

Benedicte often works cross-aesthetic creating large-scale installations in collaboration with composers, hymn writers, pianists and large choirs. She is drawn to materials that crystallize, erode, and evoke a dense and intimate atmosphere. Her work has included materials such as salt, seashells, water, and soap.

Overall, Olga Benedicte's practice is a study of how art can open up new sensory dimensions, by creating works that cultivate the connections between our body and other mechanisms, organisms, and systems. Our knowledge of the world does not arise from standing outside the world and observing it. Instead, we are an integral part of this world.
