German artist Maxine_Weiss pursues a material-based approach in her work, where all components exist in a mutual and non-hierarchical relationship. Her focus lies in questioning the boundaries of artificiality, naturalness, and corporeality. She engages with the concept of “nature” as a human-made construct that separates people from their environment, rather than assuming a reciprocal relationship. Her goal is to highlight that we inhabit a world where everything interconnects, and non-human actors wield agency just as human actions impact their surroundings.
With this coexistential approach, she aims to dissolve the dualistic distinction between nature and culture through material and media connections.
