Rasmus Nilausen is a Danish born Barcelona based painter. Recently he formed part of the residency programme at the Van Eyck Academie in Maastricht, The Netherlands.
His interest in painting is based on personal mythologies that he reconfigures in a novel way into new meanings and narratives, sometimes applying typographical elements and texts on the canvases. Rasmus studied at Chelsea College of Art and Design in London and at the Faculty of Fine Art in Barcelona where he now teaches painting.
His work has been shown internationally at galleries and art fairs in addition to institutions like the ICA-Institute of Contemporary Art in London and at Tranen and OVERGADEN in Copenhagen, as well as at La Capella, Antoni Tàpies Foundation, and the Suñol Foundation in Barcelona.
