TEXT

Can I tell you a story about you? A ghost story.  You are nineteen years old.  You are twenty years old.  You are eighty years old.  And you are thirty-eight years old. Who are you? Why are you haunting me? Nobody can see you.  Nobody can hear you. But the thing is, I am not haunting you. I don’t even know who you are. You are a ghost.  Then I am —  Can you see me? Sif Hedegård (b. 1986, Denmark) is a Danish artist, living and working in Copenhagen, Denmark. Hedegård holds an MFA from Funen Art Academy in Odense, Denmark. Her work has been exhibited at Den Frie Centre for Contemporary Art (Copenhagen, Denmark), Celsius Projects (Malmö, Sweden), Bonamatic (Copenhagen, Denmark), Hot Dock (Bratislava, Slovakia), I: project space (Bejing, China) and at Shanaynay (Paris, France) among others.
