Swedish artist TOVE KJELLMARK presents work in Australia for the first time. Based in Stockholm, Sweden, Kjellmark is known for a body of work that has been described as techno-animalism. Through video, photography and sculpture she explores the anthropocentric emphasis in technological and robotic advancement. Her visual expression is simultaneously elegant, amusing, unsettling and charged, invoking a surprising pathos, in spite of a mechanical austerity.

Tove Kjellmark's work searches for another nature. A nature that refuses to accept a difference between technological and natural forces, that refuses to accept a given difference between human life and animal life, between mechanics and organics. By questioning precisely these issues, Kjellmark attempts to challenge nature, creating it anew; not out of critique but through artistic experimentation.

This select presentation of work by Tove Kjellmark shows five photographic works and screens a video that the artist considers as core to her ongoing practice.
