Artist Statement

Performance and installation artist Sara Schnadt talks about three recent projects that are concerned with technology innovation, landscape and our perception of space. One is an absurd performance about our efforts to quantify the universe. The second creates a collision of ordinary and virtual space using everyday materials. The third traces her travel history within a constructed collective landscape. Much of Schnadt’s work involves representations or data that translate large quantities of socially resonant information into poetic forms, including data visualization. Schnadt often performs within accompanying sculptural environments, attempting to articulate the personal within virtual and technological innovation.
