Tine Bech (Master of Fine Art, Sculpture)
is a visual artist who works with
installation, sound, sculpture and drawing.
She was born in Denmark but now lives and
works in London.
Bech's work explores the membrane between the body and the world. Bech's projects have centred on using tactile materials, interactive technology and sound, to create interactions between the artwork and the viewer. The body is the membrane through which we must necessarily relate to the world.

However the borderline between body and
world is not sharply defined: instead they
are entwined in a constant dialogue. It is
this dialogue that creates the work.
Drawing is also a significant part of the practice, experimenting with mark making processes. Drawing with raindrops, or the blast waves from jumping on and squashing charcoal on paper.
She has exhibited her work in Denmark, Moscow, Berlin, the USA and England in venues including Aarhus Kunstbygning (Centre for Contemporary Art), (DK). The Fort Collins Museum of Contemporary Art (USA), L Gallery (Moscow), Trøndelag Centre of Contemporary Arts (Norway), Bankside Gallery and The Royal British Sculptors Gallery (UK). The work has been published in various magazines and newspapers and is mentioned in the book ‘Dansk Kunst 2003’ (Danish Art of the Year). Tine was awarded a Royal British Society of Sculpture Bursary in 2004 and was subsequently mentioned in the article ‘The UK’s Sculptural Newcomers’ in the New York Magazine, NY Arts in 2005. Tine has collaborated with different electronics and sound artists in creating interactive artwork. At the International Conference on Artificial Life (2002) a collaborative project was published in conjunction with Dr. Sam Woolf (Sussex University, Interact Lab). In 2006 they created an interactive sound installation for the Danish Digital Arts Festival that was covered widely in the press.
