Works by Signe Boe (b. 1988, Djursland) are appreciated for their acumen, absurdity and underlying humour. They are often presented in the media of extended cinema, and in her sculptural exhibitions she combine past and tradition-heavy techniques such as gravure-printing with present technologies, frequently intertwined by an experimental textual layer. Her works allow the rational and concrete to encounter the absurd and poetic.

The works of Signe Boe take their point of departure in the very strange things that occur to her. Recently she was approached at a party by a person who wanted to offer her a job; she had the perfect profile! Now, this is not something that occurs to her often, since she holds an MFA from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, which usually does not qualify her for anything else than her main occupation: being an artist working in the field of expanded cinema where narratives are being unfolded or supported by various elements of sculptural, flat and time-based character. The position she was offered was to smuggle medical cannabis capsules between two countries. In a way it does fit her well, since she perceives her artistic work to transport information between the rational/concrete, and the absurd/poetic. Furthermore she shares her base between two countries.

Signe Boe, f. 1988, uddannet fra Det Kgl. Danske Kunstakademi i 2017. I Signes Boes værker kan der opstå møder mellem bibelske referencer formidlet og gentænkt i nyt digitalt format. Boe foretager finurlige sproglige undersøgelser, og hendes værk tager greb med vores nuværende teknologi, som gør det muligt, at dialogen bliver meningsløs. Boe anvender sin kunst til at pege på de problematikker og misforståelser, der kan opstå, når digitale medier forvrænger samtalen. Et eksempel på dette komme til udtryk i et nyere værk 2017, Bird Calls, der i form af den velkendte iPhone tager fat i den reelle samtales svære vilkår, særligt når pointer ændrer indhold og form, når de gentages i internettets uendelige univers. I værket er kvindeansigter smeltet sammen med papegøjer, som gentager ord – ord, som fuglen ikke selv forstår eller har skabt, men blot gengiver hvad den har hørt mange gange. Sigen Boe peger på de flokmentaliteter, som både mennesker og dyr er underlagt som en styrende funktion i vores dialog.
