Georg Werner
Georg Werner studied Applied Cultural Studies at Universität Hildesheim
(Diplom), Experimental Media Design at UDK Berlin and Sound Art in a
master class with Ulrich Eller at HBK Braunschweig. He often works in
collaboration with international artists und collectives in the field
between art & technology. He is eager to learn and shares the knowledge
he gathered along the way in workshops, lectures and seminars.
His artistic approach is humble and multi layered – influenced by
objects and situations, that he modifies, to be inviting to exploration
and relation. Meanwhile they may raise the sensitivity of the viewers
perception.
