Davide Hjort Di Fabio
Davide Hjort Di Fabio, born 1990 in Popoli, Abruzzo, Italy, lives and works in Copenhagen, Denmark. He has received an MFA from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2024.
Davide Hjort Di Fabio sees sculpture as an extension and expansion of the human body. The works are often made across materials such as ceramics, metal and plastic.
The sculptures' abstract and organic forms become a metaphor for a fluid and transformative identity. The sculptures have a performative expression that is often activated through other media such as video, performance, sound and photography. Davide examines the representation of queerness through time by weaving together historical, political and personal narratives.
