plant

Katrin Wegemann creates performative sculptures with spatial reference that can be experienced in the process and realizes plastic art projects. Her sculptures are intrinsic to the material or are machine-operated and visualize the constant and intangible flow of time through the materiality of the natural processes that take place in them.

"With her work, she moves between sculpture and performance between spaces, contexts and processes, without being able to be properly assigned to an art category"
