Summary
Presentation of artistic work part of artist-in-residency at MAWA, Canada.
Supported by
MAWA: Mentoring Artists for Women ́s Art, Canada, Art Center/South Florida, USA, Västra Götalandsregionen Kultur, Sweden
Description of project
A sculptural project that investigates the biological forces behind aging, and the pathogens and bacteria behind illness, contrasting these with the strength of our body to protect and defend itself. She is interested in how illness, disease outbreaks and aging are depicted in mass media, the arts, politics and the private, social sphere. Josefina Posch’s practice exists in the borderline between sculpture, new media and social engaged work, focusing on the point where technology, biology, cloning, stereotypes, ideas, fiction and dark humor meet. Posch is also active as curator, founder of Snowball Cultural Productions and an adjunct lecturer at Valand Academy, University of Gothenburg. She is particularly interested in meeting other women working in sculpture, and has founded an organization dedicated to the study and support of women sculptors.
