Kristina Cyan
Interdisciplinary artist Kristina Cyan, russian born currently lives and works in Vienna. She acquired education BA in Architecture, MA Design in St Petersburg, MA Art Theory and Media Art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna.
Her artistic work and practice focus on the intersection of (media- and bio-) technology, body-politics, politics of images, and feminist and environmental studies.
From her point of view, technology is not only a tool but also represents hybridity politics of extensions end entering questions of information, identities, publicity and politics.
These issues concern globalization, processes of interaction with society and advanced media technologies and do affect and influence our fragmented perception of reality and materiality. And this is the area, where her aesthetical concerns are addressing a challenge of ethics.
Her works have been shown at international institutions and festivals, such as Mumok and Film Museum Vienna, Media art festival Osnabrück, B3 Bienalle moving images Frankfurt, Science&Art residency in Jena, Art&Science Fest St. Petersburg and AVU gallery Prague.
