Johannes Nielsen (born 1979, Falkenberg, Sweden) studied at Lund Art School before moving to Dublin in 2003, where he worked as an assistant to acclaimed sculptor Patrick O’Reilly, developing the foundations of his sculptural practice.

His work has been exhibited across Europe, the United States and Asia, and is held in public and private collections in cities including Stockholm, London, Singapore, Hong Kong, Beijing, New York and Montreal. His commissions include projects for Tetra Pak and private collectors in Italy and New York.

Based in Beijing since 2007, Nielsen works primarily in bronze. His sculptures explore the human form through themes of movement, stillness, connection and inner experience.
