ABOUT
Peter Kærgaard Andersen (b. 1988) is an interdisciplinary researcher whose work blends artistic practice, participatory and socially engaged methodologies with thinking across post- and environmental humanities. Often drawing on situated and concrete encounters with communities, landscapes and archives, his research relates aesthetic and poetic experimentation to topics such as place, belonging, memory, time, technology and mobility. Using a range of new media apparatuses, including filmmaking, textiles, and photography, his work merges human and more-than-human perspectives.
Andersen is at present a Postdoctoral Fellow in the research project ‘North Atlantic Everyday Stories’ at the Department of Anthropology, Aarhus University. He holds a PhD in Digital Humanities from the University of Genova (2022) and a master’s degree in Performance Design and Urban Studies at Roskilde University. Recently, he has been an artist-in-residence in the EU S+T+ARTS initiative, MUSAE (2023-2024), where he explored collaborations between art, science, and technology within the food sector. He has also lately served as a fellow in project ARTéCHO (2023-2024) and as an artist-in-residence at Art Center Rønnebæksholm as part of the ‘Communities in the Garden’ project. Andersen’s work has been widely exhibited and screened at numerous cultural and research institutions.
