Coming up
Residency for process-based artistic research Auenland: July - August 2026

Wasserschlösschen Ismaning : August 2025 – January 2026
Residency at Wasserschlösschen Ismaning (Bavaria) supported by the Kallmann Museum

In a site-responsive, cyclical project, I brought stones of the Isar river into the residency castle, where I create shared rituals and spaces between my human and their lithic bodies as a breeding ground for reciprocal bodily inscriptions. After this period of intimacy, the stones are returned to the river, allowing the more-than-human world to reinterpret and overwrite the traces of our encounter.

Bohemian Mass (ongoing project)

In this continuation of my work with the geological strata of the Bohemian Mass, I delve further into the exploration of my kinship with the characteristic rock formations in my region of origin in Upper Austria, the Mühlviertel. With the support of a scholarship of the State Upper Austria (Land OÖ), I have developed a new body of work beginning by taking molds of the rocks themselves and using methods of sculptural casting as a gesture of touch, longing and impossibility.

Egon Schiele Art Centrum, guest studio, Český Krumlov (CZ): June 2023
This residency marked the beginning of my work with the Bohemian Massif as the stone layer I share a kinship with, having grown up in Upper Austria. I approached the Czech region, which is close to my home town in Austria, through this shared stone layer. Starting out with a trip along the border, I collected stones and their traces before immersing myself in their corporeality in the guest studio of the State Upper Austria (Land OÖ) in the Egon Schiele Art Centrum in Cesky Krumlov. This process led to the development of installative works and an artist book, combining poems and graphic works.

Kunstfestival Begehungen, Thalheim: July - August 2022
During this residency, the site-specific installation titled Stagnant Waters was realized for the art festival Plansch in an abandoned swimming pool in a small town near Chemnitz. It incorporates the mingled atmosphere of play that had once taken place here and the desolation that is becoming more and more prevalent. I filled two indoor-pools with inky black bitumen-based liquid that congealed into large puddles with glossy surfaces, both swallowing and reflecting the colorful architecture.

Kunsthalle Kleinschönach: May 2022

The project for the residency at the Kunsthalle Kleinschönach centered around the paradox of the physical to strive towards its fullest expression whilst also being in a constant process of dissolution. While creating the series of sculptures titled yearnings out of alabaster stone, I simultaneously worked with collecting and dispersing the material that was removed during the sculpting process.
