Mazja Hillestrøm 1976 Lives and works in Copenhagen About Mazja Mazja Chloé Hillestrøm was born in North Zealand in 1976 and grew up in and around Copenhagen. The interest in art was cultivated at the Bernadotte school in Hellerup, where a spectacular work from her early teens until recently was decorating one of the school's walls. As an adult she has lived in London, New York, Vienna, and Copenhagen. Mazja has studied at Kunstskolen Spektrum in Copenhagen (2010-11), Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Vienna (2011-13), Konsthöganskolan in Malmö (2013-14), and Fatamorgana in Copenhagen (2014-15). Above all Mazja is an artistic photographer, but she is also interested in light, installation art, and documentaries. She had an exhibition of her lamps called Bubbles in Politikens Hus in Copenhagen (2015). Her fine art photography has been exhibited at Gallery Christoffer Egelund several times, and with the Broken Land collection she was named artist of the year in 2017. This year she had a special exhibition at the Rudolph Tegner Museum and Statue Park. With her metamorphosic photographs entitled Resurrection, Mazja offered a completely new perspective on the sculptures of Rudolph Tegner. In addition, she contributes with five new pieces of work to the May edition of the photo book The Year about Copenhagen. Mazja is also part of the duo UHHI Projects that has exhibited several places, among others at Kunsthal in Aarhus (2016) and at The Art Foundations in Athens (2016). The duo has just been granted a stay at the Danish Art Workshops, from which new creations hopefully will emerge soon.
