Site-specific artwork, Mette Colberg
Art Consultancy for institutions in Denmark
Art in universities, care facilities and public institutions must be carefully considered. I provide independent art consultancy for institutions in Denmark, supporting public art projects and commissioned artworks that respond to context, users and long-term durability.

How I work with InstitutionsPublic and Institutional Art Projects with Contextual Awareness
With experience in curated and site-specific projects, I understand the structural, financial and ethical considerations required in institutional settings.
Working primarily with independent artists, the institutions I consult will often get more art and value for their money. Focusing on the right artistic match for the institution, and its everyday users, rather than a big name.
As an independent art advisor for institutional environments, my focus is responsible implementation and long-term relevance.
