Selina Zürrer

My work moves between material experimentation, research and narrative moments. I am particularly interested in how history is reflected in objects, archival systems or traditional techniques. I link personal and collective memory and use playful interventions to irritate established structures. By reusing and reconnecting materials, I create alternative narratives that question existing orders and open up new perspectives.

Driven by a deep interest in different techniques and media, I try to find ways to adapt them. Rather than perfection, I am seeking an open approach - a process that leaves room for coincidence, deviations and unforeseen solutions. I examine how a medium shapes not only our perception and society, but also itself - through use, technological developments and the course of time. I question how it has changed, how it influences our society and vice versa - in the past, the present and the future.
