Artist

Stefanie Knobel | Studio Residency 2020

India | Visual Arts

1 - 31 January 2020 — Visual Arts

Stefanie Knobel is an artist working between choreography, language, installation and performance. Since 2013, she has set herself some parameters under the name “skein” to structure her choreographies, installations, (performative) texts and videos, exhibited at Helmhaus Zürich, Künstlerhaus Bremen and FRAC Lorraine Metz. A large part of her conceptual projects are based on historical research on global cotton production and its related power

-knowledge complex. Zones of conflicts invisible to gentrification, labor, technology and performance, tactility, text and textile are all themes reflected in her body of work. The Indian subcontinent has been an important part of her work.
