Cecilia Jonsson holds an MA from the Nordic Sound Art programme and the Bergen Academy of Art and Design, Bergen, Norway. Jonsson is a multidisciplinary artist whose research resides in the tension between organic and inanimate matter.

Solo exhibitions include ‘The Iron Ring project’, Atelier Nord, Oslo, Norway (2014); ‘The Seed of Metals’, Gallery Cirkulationscentralen, Malmö, Sweden (2014); and ‘Hypothesis of a geo-magnetic pull’, Tag Team Studio, Bergen (2013).
