nabbteeri's practice is characterized by the preconditions of working in changing locations. Their polymorphic works are compositions based on somewhat messy interactions and fusions between the artists and other things. Alongside of borrowed, recycled and remodeled surplus materials and objects, nabbteeri's stratified, mesh-like works can include elements created with 3D modelling or other digital technologies. These often ephemeral works change their form throughout long processes.

nabbteeri is a collective formed in 2008 by Finnish artists Janne Nabb (b. 1984) and Maria Teeri (b. 1985) who are graduates of the Academy of Fine Arts of the University of the Arts Helsinki (MFA, 2011). Recent exhibition sites include Nordic Pavilion in the 58th Venice biennale (IT); Museum of contemporary art Kiasma in Helsinki (FI); EMMA Espoo Museum of Modern Art in Espoo (FI); Titanik gallery in Turku(FI); Pixelache festival in Suvilahti, Helsinki(FI); Mustarinda in Hyrynsalmi(FI); Varbergs Konsthall(SE); Art Sonje Center in Seoul(KR); Kulturni centar GRAD in Belgrade(RS); and KARST in Plymouth(UK).
