Amanda Lydért (born 1994, Denmark) lives and works in Copenhagen. She graduated from Royal College of Art, London in 2022 with an MA in Fine Art, from the Critical Practice Department. Lydért is a conceptual artist interested specifically with epistemological investigation and manipulation (often personal). Her practice is influenced by an educational background in aesthetic theory and design culture - her way is poetic, always relying on the seduction of beauty, never neglecting the power of humour. She deals primarily with text, digital print, painting and sculptural installation.
