Selected Works
Adam Jeppesen
Born 1978, Denmark
Adam Jeppesen, born in 1978 in Kalundborg, Denmark, is an artist and a traveller. He is best known for his images of remote and rugged landscapes where he celebrates the physical imperfections his long and arduous journeys left on his negatives. Jeppesen's work elevates the imperfect and celebrates the honesty that comes with allowing the imperfection to take centre-stage within his finished pieces. The fragility of photographic materials, the passage of time and the materiality of the photograph as an object are continuing themes that reappear in Jeppesen's oeuvre.
He first gained international recognition with his "Wake" series, which were published in 2008 by Steidl in book format. Jeppesen has since published several books, Error, Object, Structure, being his most recent. His work has been exhibited worldwide and is present in the collection at the Denver Art Museum (USA), the Danish Arts Foundation, the National Public Art Council in Sweden, the National Museum of Photography in Denmark, as well as in numerous private collections.In addition to the exhibition in Innova, Jeppesen is showing his large-scale installation, The Great Filter, at Museo MAR, Argentina, as part of Bienalsur.
Adam Jeppesen currently lives in Maldonado, Uruguay.
