Museum Haus Konstruktiv | Katja Schenker – Caryatids Go for a Swim | curated by Sabine Schaschl and Muriel Pérez | Video: schwarzpictures.com | 4.6.2026–6.9.2026

For more than two decades, Swiss artist Katja Schenker (b. 1968) has devoted herself to performative works, drawings, sculptures and installations in indoor and outdoor spaces. She mainly develops her artworks from natural materials, whereby not only their sensuous qualities, but also spatial and temporal aspects, such as context, mass or transience, play an important role. In her work, she takes the theme of the body, corporeality and body perception as a starting point, from which she explores spaces that she both occupies and creates, conveying a particular interest in permeability.
