Louise Hedegaard Madsen studied Fine Art at Goldsmiths in London and lives in Copenhagen. Through the use of installation and sculpture, her work revolves around affective labour, intimacy, and the expression of softer power. Her practice examines soft power possibilities through the use of colors, the "love hormone” Oxytocin, and other everyday materials such as fabrics, yarns, and salt. "For Open and Closed I have made a series of small knitted containers using purely yarn and technique to create the shape and closure. Nothing is cut away or added. Hand-made meets machine-made in a time-consuming process, where the knitted stitch envelops a thread in a weft-like structure and shades of monochrome color merge. Old handcraft techniques look modern, when natural fibers are enveloped in monofilament and shine to form a shrine. Pleats add natural shape to the small, folded objects that are seemingly both open and closed."
