* Austria (Styria), lives and works in Vienna
After graduating from the Higher Technical College of Art & Design in Graz 'Ortweinschule' (focus on architecture and painting), I studied Intermedia Art with
Sound-Art Pioneer Bernhard Leitner at the University of Applied Arts, Vienna (graduation with distinction, 2006) and History of Art at the University of Vienna.
My work focuses on the engagement with interactions, frictions and spaces between different media types (sound, sculpture/object, video, photography, light, text, LandArt, public space, architecture and design). Contextualizing the sensory perception of space, time and location as well as the examination of cognitive processes and the everyday are central themes that I realize in my site-specific space installations, sculptures, interventions and performances. The exploration of and experiments with architectural, virtual or even social and political spaces are fundamental.
