Sculpture, Wood on Wood
Size: 16.5 W x 23.6 H x 0 D in
‘Cone’ involves a large conical object inside which the artist climbs. Once inside, it becomes a perverse form of transport involving more twisting and struggling than travelling. The destination and purpose of the movement is unclear, much like that of a caged, observed animal; a hidden purpose imbuing the performance with a fear of the unknown. Norrgren embodies the sculpture and, in doing so, she sacrifices her senses to create apparently random movement through interaction with a highly specified geometrical shape.

After finishing her BA in Fine Art at Oxford University Mimi Norrgren went on to complete an MA in Sculpture at the Royal College of Art in London. In 2010 she was shortlisted for the Saatchi New Sensations Art Prize. Tugged between sculptural object and performative action, her work often takes the form of live performance. She is obsessively involved in sculpture because it allows her to understand the world while touching it. Norrgren's work is guided by images of unique landscapes and tradition some of which are routed in her Czech and Swedish ancestry.
