Benjamin Zuber — Visual Artist

About

My intermedial works emerge from a performative process of construction and deconstruction. I search for forms that fail productively and assign particular value to the irreproducible first attempt, where concept and matter first collide.

Grounded in continuous technical exploration, my works explored bodily fragility and the potential of physical injury for several years – shaped by personal experience. In response to escalating global crises the focus of recent works has shifted from injured bodies toward fractured systems.

I try to open large societal questions only to foreground the instability of personal perspective: Big gestures and how they implode.
