Signe Ralkov (b. 1997, Roskilde; DK) is an artist living and working in Copenhagen, Denmark. The artist is currently completing an MFA at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, scheduled to graduate in spring 2025.
Having developed a detailed representational style of drawing from an early age, Signe Ralkov’s works are recognizable for their ability to blend elements of visual realism with fantasy imagery, mythic symbolism and iconography. Recurring themes include an investigation of transformation, the different ways in which mental states can be embodied, as well as how images and the process of mirroring can explain identity formation on both a personal and cultural level.
The artist continues to keep a detailed archive of source materials that includes everything from her own snapshots to medical images and cinematic stills.
