About the artist
Ferner’s artistic practice revolves around forgotten and hidden parts of our common history. Through research in archives, libraries and museum collections, he connects and maps unexplored stories together with site-specific investigations. His works raise questions about how these places bear their history and what traces remain today. Ferner is the 2024 recipient of the Sven and Ellida Hjort Exhibition Grant.
