Gun Gordillo was educated under, among others, Gunnar Aagaard Andersen at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen from 1969 to 1975, where she later also worked as a lecturer. She held her first exhibition at Galleri Leger in Malmö in 1977. She often works with neon light installations in her pieces, which are frequently characterized by lightness and ephemerality.
