| About the Artist |
ART IS A PARASITE. ART IS MISINTERPRETED DATA. ART IS TERROR: My work gives insights into different form of territories, data, dolls and robotics interacting within the urban spaces and urban life. Believing strongly and deeply in my artwork as a host for an emancipated audience, the source of my work is a voluptuous engagement with scientific thin-king, autobiographic momentum and development of gender robotics. Replenishing the feminist strategies of the past which transformed dynamically into an ‘equality of differences’ my interest prolongs from body data observations to social critical interactive urban data. My installations approach the spectators with questions about data movements, strategies in social behaviour and
future progress of urban interaction. ART IS BIOCHEMICAL. ART IS A PARASITE: The host system is the human body. Art exists as a parasite in the mind of the viewer. My interest in art is the effect to operate like a hallucination: to appear and to disappear like a mirage in the brain. My investigations concern’s is to manufacture ‘disappearances’ provoking a moment of data transfer. I toggle between inner and outer worlds. My concern in art is to escort these forms of hallucinatory processes, to set up fresh wounds where a new form of madness emerges. ART IS TERROR: When the artwork has terrorised the spectator entering in the sphere of his brain, my work is completed. As main focus remains to initiating the confusion of the brain parts. ART IS MISINTERPRETED DATA: The Freedom of art is to function as a platform on which it accumulates versions of perceptions which differ.
