Sophie Ernst |
| |
While trained as a sculptor, Ernst now uses video as the basis of much of her work. She explores themes of belonging, displacement and cultural relativity in multi-media works that often mix video projection and sculptural installations. Sophie draws freely on imagery from east and west, which she often juxtaposes in startling fashion. Her recent international exhibitions include Re-Forming Landscape at the National Art Gallery, Islamabad; Best of Discovery at ShContemporary, Shanghai; Paradise Lost at the Royal Geographical Society, London; Lovedolls at Abguss Sammlung Antiker Plastik, Berlin and Museum fur Abgusse Klassischer Bidwerke, Munich.
Sophie trained as an industrial mechanic at BMW before graduating from the Rijksakademie voor Beeldende Kunst in Amsterdam in 2000. She lives and works between Pakistan and Germany.
