Nadine Rangosch (*1991) utilises sound, sculpture, video, 3D-modelling and animation. Her multimedia installations build on narratives in between fact and fiction, that show unexpected links between solid and liquid, symbolism and realism, human and non-human. Natural sciences, visual culture and mythological stories inspire her to build her own vocabulary, translating abstract concepts into spatial arrangements. The reflection on power relationships in society is a constant influence and inspiration, anchoring her atmospheric works within the ordinary.
