Biography

Jordan Söderberg Mills is a Canadian visual artist working in installation, sculpture and design objects. His work explores identity, perception and the sublime, playing with the borders between physical and digital realities and pushing the material possibilities of light. Through a research-based practice in optics and material science, he examines the nature of colour and transforms perception through works in glass, light and projection.

Born in Ancaster, Ontario, he studied at Trinity College, University of Toronto, then at Universidad Diego Portales in Santiago, Chile. He apprenticed as a blacksmith with Chilean artist Francisco Gazitua in the foothills of the Andes and holds a Master's degree from Central Saint Martins in London. He has developed projects for the Victoria and Albert Museum, Tate Britain, the Art Gallery of Ontario and Design Museum Gent, with permanent public works standing in Dubai, Brussels, London and Berlin. He won Wallpaper* Magazine's Best in Glass and currently lives in Germany.
