BIO
Monika Grabuschnigg lives and works in Berlin. In her artistic practice she engages in topics like longing, grief and melancholy.
Processing domesticated and commodified objects (e.g. clothing, home appliances, plants) into sculptures and installations, she explores the beliefs and desires that inform the fundamental understanding of our very own being.
In 2020 and 2022, Grabuschnigg was awarded a grant of Stiftung Kunstfonds Bonn, in 2018 she received the Berlin Art Prize. Her works are represented in international private collections and several public institutions; including the State Museum Vorarlberg, the Artothek des Bundes in Vienna, and the Graphic Collection of the Academy of Fine Arts, Vienna.
