Born 1960 in Switzerland, spent several years of her
childhood in Saas Fee, still remembering the incredible colours of
the flowers, the glitter of snow and sunshine, the incomprehensible
roar of avalanches…
1983 - 1988 student at F+F Schule für
experimentelle Gestaltung (today named
F+F Schule für Kunst und Mediendesign) in
Zurich.
Currently working with used
paper like letter envelopes, layers of disassembled
packaging, corrugated cardboard found on her way through everyday
life.
Interested in the flow of construction - destruction -
construction - destr… , as even mountains change unceasingly.
Inspired by the fatigue and emptiness left after almost endless
circles of misunderstandings created by word pairs such as
wilderness and civilization, good and bad,
high and deep and many others.
Loves sentences like Zeichnen ist die Kunst, Striche
spazieren zu führen (drawing is the art of walking
strokes) by Paul Klee.
Three adult kids and a lovely seven year old
granddaughter.
