Nika Kupyrova\u2019s installations envision exhibition spaces as parallel worlds for the viewer to explore. In these worlds, nothing is what it seems \u2013 materials imitate other materials, 3D and 2D become interchangeable and objects mirror each other across media and disciplines. For her artist talk at Funen Art Academy, Nika Kupyrova will use examples from her past projects and talk about mistranslation, curiosity-driven research and artistic vulnerability.<\/p>\n
