Born in 1968, Noel studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts 1993 – 2000. He has been the recipient of various grants including grants from The Danish Arts Foundation, the Marie Månssons grant and Blix Prisen 2000, and has been exhibiting work since 1994. A mixed media artist, Jacob Noel is a drawer, photographer, and sculptor. His imagery is often diagrammatic, with an architectural quality, parts of a structure or constructions, buildings and urbanised areas. A consistent theme of in his art, is the interest in "spaces-in-between", intervals in and of space. He states that: his artistic practice can exist on a conceptual level, be seen in an international context, as it seeks to deepen the understanding of the detail of space as something universal — a language that is more seen than spoken. Through sculpture, drawings and photography, his practice skirts the edge of terms such as scale, space and function, terms normally associated with architecture. Through this view, hr wants to describe a different world, one usually associated with architecture. He atempts to define the significance of space in a functional sense through a strongly subjective approach to the material, the details of a moment, time and place is expressed in fragments. He aims in general to be seen as a conceptual adaptation of detail, as an aesthetic materialization of the transient.
