Sidsel Meineche Hansen
Sidsel Meineche Hansen (b. 1981) is a Danish artist based in London. Her work explores how technology, power, and the body are connected—especially how systems like the tech industry, the healthcare sector, and the adult entertainment world shape how we live, work, and feel. Through sculpture, animation, video, and installations, she asks big questions about who’s in control, what’s being sold, and how it all affects the way we see ourselves.
One of her most talked-about projects features EVA v3.0, a 3D-scanned figure of a sex worker that Hansen sourced from a commercial virtual reality platform. She’s used this avatar in multiple works to highlight how digital images and bodies are bought, sold, and manipulated—raising questions about consent, identity, and capitalism in the virtual age.
Hansen often mixes hard, industrial materials with moving images, creating spaces that feel part-laboratory, part-personal. Her work is deeply critical, but also emotional—grounded in research but rooted in lived experience.
She’s shown her work at some of the leading art institutions in Europe, including Tate Modern, KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin, Hamburger Bahnhof, Kunsthal Aarhus, and Chisenhale Gallery in London, where she had a solo show that helped bring her international attention.
Whether she’s talking about pharmaceuticals, porn, or mental health, Sidsel Meineche Hansen’s art pulls back the curtain on the systems running in the background of our daily lives—and how they impact our bodies and minds.
