Martha Skou is a Danish-born artist based in Copenhagen, Denmark.
She is an interdisciplinary artist who moves freely between audible and visual worlds. Both analytical and experimental, her work toys with opposites in color, shape and/or sound. She earned her master’s degree from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Design while at the same time playing with her former band Betting On The Mouse. Her musical interest influences her practice in various ways through experimental sound performances, graphics scores and objects envisioned as visual music. She has created personal universes surrounding her work both in her collaborations and solo projects. Her language is abstract and atmospheric, with compositions in spatial formats as well as two-dimensional media.
Skou has been accepted to several residencies around the world and have shown work at venues such as The Museum of Arts and Design (MAD) NYC, Maison Du Danemark, Paris. Telfair Museums, Savannah. Aros Museum, Aarhus and Pioneer Works Center for Art + Innovation in New York among others.
