French-Danish artist Eva Nielsen came to The Cabin LA in August of 2017. Prior to the start of her  residency, Nielsen had an extensive career including being the recipient of the Prix des Amis des  Beaux-Arts Prize in 2009, the Art Collector Prize in 2014, and the laureate of the LVMH Métiers d’Arts  prize in 2021. In her works, Nielsen often depicts landscapes that feel out of place ⎯ liminal spaces  of sorts which feel familiar, and yet, distant. Her art has been hailed as representing “super  modernity,” or, a modern world that has been stretched to the limit of its sustainability ⎯ now  abandoned, with only the remnants of humanity remaining. Here, in Hard Sun, Nielsen presents a  mountainous landscape: beautiful and empty. Transposed in this scene is an imposing grey and black  structure, reminiscent of concrete or other man-made constructions. The geometric forms in the  screen-printed form have an almost humanoid shape, an uncanny reminder of our own sense of  place in a world on the brink. Nielsen is represented by The Pill.
