Working the Light, 2024

Frido Evers holds a bachelor’s degree from the Academy for Art and Design in ‘s-Hertogenbosch (NL) and earned a master’s degree from Kustakademiet in Oslo. He lives and works in Bærum (NO).

Frido Evers explores layers in search of moments of stillness and presence. Layers of meaning and layers of material have emerged as a mode of working over the past decade of his practice. This is perhaps most evident in his collages, where several images printed on acrylic glass and other materials are superimposed, and various elements are added to the composition. The same technique is also found in his installations. Atmospheric scenes of decaying industrial and human dreams, strange science fiction-inspired universes, and architectural dystopias tend to be the result of this process.

He has been represented by Galleri Maria Veie (NO) and later by CINNNAMON in Rotterdam (NL). He has exhibited works at Galleri Kösk (NO), Bærum Kunsthall (NO), Noplace (NO), Brenau University (US), Blomquist (NO), Zürcher Gallery (NY), Flipbook Gallery (AU), Örebro Kunsthal (SE), De Fabriek (NL), and Raid Projects (LA), among other venues. He has exhibited at several art fairs around the world, including Art Basel Hong Kong (HK), Art Rotterdam (NL), Art Amsterdam (NL), and Pulse Art Fair (NY).
