Jakob Lena Knebl (* 1970 in Baden as Martina Egger ) is an Austrian artist .
Live and act
She studied textual sculpture with Heimo Zobernig at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and with Raf Simons at the fashion class of the University of Applied Arts Vienna .
From a few years ago, Martina Egger replaced her baptismal name with the first names of her grandparents in the sense of her game with identity and gender and gave herself the surname Knebl.
In her work, she combines the associative abundance of her own thinking with a variety of means of expression (performance, installation, film, photography, object). Jakob Lena Knebl lives in Vienna and works as a senior artist at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna.
Jakob Lena Knebl and Ashley Hans Scheirl will design the Austria Pavilion at the Venice Biennale 2021 .
