Evelina Dovsten is an artist based in Stockholm.

In her human endeavor to try to understand reality, Evelina Dovsten aims again and again to translate it, simplify it and understand it. There in the simplification, and in the power to convince, the scientific-, the esoteric- and the sacred aesthetics meet. She uses them all and the works become a conclusion —> a map —> & a self-portrait.

She makes practical and theoretical knowledge fade together and in the works there is always an aspiration to highlight and point out the importance of tacit knowledge. The works themselves visually tells the story of how they where made, and by preserving and collecting knowledge in materials, she wants to activate our thoughts about how knowledge is stored and passed on.

Evelina Dovsten is educated at Konstfack (MFA 2019) in Stockholm, and has her studio in G-studion, Gustavsberg. She is a co-creator of the Konsthantverkspodden, and has written the book: Den Moderna Sfinxen together with Andreas Nobel (Otsium Books).
