ABOUT THE ARTIST
Carlotta Borcherding, born 1999 in Hamburg, Germany, is a
media artist who lives and works in Linz, Austria. They study at the department of Timebased
and Interactive Media Art at the University of Art in Linz. Their projects have established a
focus within the performative art developing choreographic elements, designing and
composing sound and creating acoustic and visual landscapes. Thus placing the body itself
as a medium within a digital and interactive context.
In the last years three projects in the field
of interactive performance art have developed within the Deep Space, an interactive
playground based within a sensory laser tracking system determining the radius of action of
the performing artist. The performance Environment had its premiere at the international Ars
Electronica Festival 2023 in Linz. The Performance-/ Dancefilm Environment had its
international premiere at the Gwangju Media Art Festival 2023 in Korea while the Deep Space
Performance Paragon will have its premiere at this years ARS ELectronica Festival 2024 at the
Deep Stage Performance Night. Recently the artist is part of the project What is remaining, a
cooperation between the Department of Timebased and Interactive Media and the
international performance collective TANZ LINZ, working as a sound and visual artist, where
the piece 無何有- mukayu. mukayu. by dancer and choreographer Hinako Taira will be shown
for the first time at the Ars Electronica Center in June 2024.
As an artist I understand timebased art as naturally dynamic and free in its form and medium but also
as an essential part of culture, society, and politics within the public and private space accompanying a
person on
a daily basis whereas moments, situations, and events arise, come together and intertwine.
In this context I understand every type of medium as an interface that functions between society and
art. Media art as a form
of self expression gives me an identity and a voice. I observe, hear, understand,
don't understand, and interpret:
I allow myself to be influenced and even manipulated, consciously and
unconsciously. It is feelings, situations, moments, people and their identities that can be captured and
expressed through a medium.
