Skulptur, video og installation


Davide Hjort Di Fabio works with sculpture, video and installation. His practice approaches sculpture as an extension of the human body, using materials such as ceramics, metal, and plastic to form abstract and organic sculptures. Through these material explorations, he examines queerness as a fluid and relational condition shaped by personal experiences and historical contexts. His work reflects on how bodies are continuously formed and negotiated within social, ecological, and structural frameworks.
Recent exhibitions include Kunsthal Charlottenborg (2024), the Italian Cultural Institute (2024), Vejen Art Museum (2023), Kunsthal Rønnebæksholm (2021), and Den Frie Udstillingsbygning (2020). In 2026, he will exhibit at Politikens Forhal and Fotografisk Center. In 2023, he received the Anne Marie Carl Nielsen Talent Prize for Sculptors.
