Tris Vonna-Michell

Tensta Konsthall, Spanga

Vonna-Michell works across different genres such as performance, installation, visual poetry and sound art. Drawing upon themes of journeys, archiving and documentation, Vonna-Michell will present a selection of older works alongside entirely new ones. At Tensta, the work will be realised in a way that highlights Vonna-Michell's practice of layering works and intertwining meanings between different narratives.

At Tensta Konsthall he will present a new work based on a variety of sources that may or may not include a sunken fun fair off the English coast, unemployed Stirling Air flight personnel and an island in the Luleå archipelago

Tris Vonna-Michell has had solo exhibitions at X Initiative, New York (2009), GAMeC, Bergamo (2009), Kunsthalle Zürich (2008 and 2009), Cubitt, London (2007), Witte de With, Rotterdam (2007), Braunschweig Kunstverein Cuboid (2007), and Palais de Beaux-Arts, Brussels (2006).

He has also performed and participated in group exhibitions worldwide, including at Creative Time, New York; the Tate Triennial, Tate Britain, London; The Generational: Younger Than Jesus, New Museum, New York; and MUDAM, Luxembourg (all 2009), as well as the Yokohama Triennial and the 5th Berlin Biennial (both 2008). In 2008, he was awarded the Bâloise Art Prize, the Ars Viva Prize, and an IASPIS Residency in Stockholm.
