Gunhild Aaberg is a renowned Danish contemporary artist and ceramicist based in Copenhagen. She is among the very few in her field who have been awarded the Statens Kunstfonds' honorary award. She runs her own ceramic gallery and studio in Lille Strandstræde 14 A in Copenhagen. In her studio she handcrafts and fires all of her ceramic artworks, which all are entirely unique.

Except from small artworks it takes Gunhild Aaberg weeks or even months to finish a ceramic artwork. She is focusing on her sculptures and art installations at the moment. When Gunhild is creating a sculpture she often spends weeks on handbuilding it inch by inch. She will continue to work on the shape until she is satisfied. In the process the sculpture will most likely be reshaped many times. If she is not satisfied with the shape, she destroys it.       

When Gunhild Aaberg exhibits she is among others known for creating art installations and not be limited by working entirely with clay as a material. Gunhild Aaberg is fascinated by the sea and the harbour as a recurring theme in her raw, powerful and often large sculptural forms that carry memories of ships, architecture and the vessel.
