Silvia Popp
Silvia Popp situates art as an ongoing process of investigations, which works by communication and exchange. Art opens, whether as a metaphor or concrete action, perceptions, opportunities and needs for action.
The artist is interested in specific, physical or metaphorical places and their conditions. Place as space, as dimension - place as a community, as a network, as a discourse – place as a position, a status as an impulse.
What kind of questions, frictions and contradictions include places?
Through on-site interaction a process starts and the social-economic values and systems are being questioned, the discourse with the audience begins.
Since 2009: Member of art collective STUDIO ACTION
2006-2010: Studies of Fine Art, F+F School of Art and Media design Zurich
2009: Exchange MFA Art, eca Edinburgh college of Art
2003-2005: Pre-Studies of Fine Art Zurich University of the Arts
