Katrin Hanusch is a visual artist working across a diverse range of media including performance, sculpture, installation, and drawing.
Hanusch’s site-responsive works plunge the viewer into complex scenarios that trace and respond to the underlying principles of interconnectedness found in our relationship to one another and the environment. Her protean practice experiments with a disparate range of materials, from objects and detritus of late capitalism, to discarded by-products of processes, or defunct electronic parts that register different frequencies, temporal scales and associations. Her intuitive approach interacts on a poetic level with material, turns it into an actant, and proposes new potentials and future materials, from which an inherent fluidity arises.
