Born in Denmark in 1974, Mie Olise Kjaergaard studied architecture both in Aarhus, Denmark where she received her MA and at the Bartlett in London after which she received a funding award for two years from the Danish Arts Council. Although Kjaergaard has been making art throughout her studies in architecture she decided to focus on her practice by taking an MA in Fine Art at Central St. Martin's. A finalist in Saatchi's four new sensations campaign, following this exhibition in London, she looks forward to another solo show at the Barbara Davis Gallery, Texas, later this year. She lives and works in London and Denmark.
