Eric Magassa’s (b.1972) practice encompasses collage, painting, photography and video – often combined in multifaceted, large-scale installations. His distinctive colourful compositions evolve around decolonial narratives, identity, place and belonging. By processing different archives and unfolding visual patterns in frequently neglected spaces, he explores modes of looking and thinking that in many ways disrupt the narrow aesthetics of the canonised white cube. Magassa studied at Central Saint Martins in London and the Art Students League in New York. He was a recipient of the Stena Foundation Culture Scholarship in 2022 and has exhibited extensively at institutions including Örebro Konsthall (2025), Tensta Konsthall (2024), the 9th Çanakkale Biennial (2024), the 15th Gwangju Biennale (2024), Malmö Konstmuseum (2024), Gothenburg Museum of Art (2023), Malmö Konsthall (2023), Wanås Konst (2022), Marres House for Contemporary Culture (Maastricht, 2021), Uppsala Konstmuseum (2020), Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art (2019), and Moderna Museet (Stockholm, 2018) among others. Magassa lives and works in Gothenburg, Sweden.
