Sarah Hilmer Rex
Sarah Hilmer Rex (b. 1982) is a Danish artist based in Bergen. She is currently completing her Master’s degree at the Faculty of Art, Music and Design (KMD) in Bergen, yet she has already established a distinct and mature artistic vocabulary. Her work is characterized by a rare meticulousness and a profound interest in materiality. Through media such as painting, sculpture, and installation, she explores the domestic as both an idea and a physical reality.
Rex works with domestic artifacts such as textiles, toys, and furniture and is interested in how the home and its familiar surroundings can shift and be disrupted over time. In her works, she creates subtle disturbances of everyday objects, rendering the domestic simultaneously intimate, uncanny, and disorienting.
