Music - as a primary source of emotions - is of enormous significance within my work and goes hand in hand
with my visual art. Especially within the framework of my art performances I attempt to address the perception
of the viewer in a variety of ways. My goal is to touch their hearts and minds likewise.
The fusion of emotion and intellect is the driving force behind my work. From my point of view the complemental term for
ratio(nality)
is emotio(nality) rather than irrationality. Instead of advocating the
polarity of reason and irrationality, I strive
to strike a balance between the logical and psychological aspects of human life. In how far can this equilibrium between
heart and mind change the way we life, influence our decisions, our perceptions, or even the world we life in?
Over many years i worked with different musicians - mostly in order to produce soundmaterial for my performances.
2009 I focused on writing new songs. Mostly I thematized the reflection
of my position as a female artist within the artworld.
Meanwhile I refrained mainly from my activities within the
field of visual art, which also can be seen as a statement in order
to a competition-fetisizing and egocentric society, as I refused to
function within the artmarket.
In selfimposed isolation I worked on the songmaterial, later on I produced the songs with the viennese musician
Stefan Geissler.
Since autumn 2010 I am using this material within the frame of my
performanceart but also playing livegigs...
