petra gell

She is dealing with questions of space, city and architecture in her work. The starting point is the experience and perception of specific places and urban constellations. 

Since the “spatial turn” or the so-called “topological turn”, space is no longer understood as a Cartesian box, but as a socio-cultural entity, as a field of possibility that is shaped by our perceptions and actions. 

A linear construct of colors and shapes is created - an architecture to think for yourself. 

She studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna (Gunter Damisch, degree 2006), Visual Education (Markus Prachensky, degree 2006) and Textil Design (Josef Schulz, degree 2006) and at the Universita di Roma Sapienza.
