Lotta Stöver

My name is Lotta Stöver (*1996) and I am currently based in Weimar/Bremen (Germany). I work as an artist in the fields of media, technologies and research.

My works engage with phenomena, energies and matters where they converse, align, disobey, transform, de/transition and mutate along with (new) technologies. Through processes of poetic engineering, experimental imaging methods, writing, and involving data and matter in an embedded and embodied manner, I intend to question (social) norms implied by natural and technological environments. My practice materializes in the social domain of technologies, resulting in observations, queer alternatives and subjective utopian proposals. I invite you to receive my work as a differentiation and re-imagining of our technologically-mediated world, overall extending what can be considered as real.

I often work in installation format, incorporating electronics, self-built machines and software. From 2018 - 2021, I co-initiated and co-edited the techno-feminist publication href zine.

From 2015 - 2023 I studied Digital Media at the University of the Arts Bremen (Germany). Besides my emerging art practice, I work as an artistic associate in the Media Arts program of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar.
