Helene Duckert

Helene Duckert (b. 1988) is an artist, writer, and art mediator currently based in Oslo, Norway. Her educational background is from Oslo National Academy of the Arts (KHiO) and Oslo Metropolitan University (OsloMet). Duckert graduated from KHiO in 2018 with an MFA in Medium- and Material-Based Art. She works with discarded and scavenged objects, detritus, and obsolete materials, creating assemblages and installations that function as personal comments on contemporary living. Like an archaeologist who examines the remains of the last great civilisation, Duckert finds new connections between humans and their possessions. With small means and changing subtle and disturbing humor, surplus materials are transformed into meaningful objects that reflect life in an increasingly globalised world.
