Every Ocean Hughes

Alive Time

Stockholm, 1.3 2022 – 17.4 2022

Moderna Museet is proud to present the first museum exhibition in Scandinavia by Stockholm-based artist and writer Every Ocean Hughes (b. 1977, USA), which will open on March 1.

Titled Alive Time, this presentation will feature a selection of the artist’s most significant works of the last decade that address the struggle and ingenuity of queer life. Alive Time takes place in various chapters and at different locations across Skeppsholmen island, including MDT and Eric Ericsonhallen/Skeppsholmskyrkan, thus aligning the format of the exhibition with Hughes’s approach to dispersal, fragmentation, and movement as distinctly queer strategies.

Every Ocean Hughes’s exhibition Alive Time is curated by Hendrik Folkerts (newly appointed Curator of International Contemporary Art), in collaboration with Catrin Lundqvist (Curator of Learning).
