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, disobey, transform, de/transition, resist and mutate along with new technologies. Through processes of poetic engineering and experimental imaging methods, my practice focuses on data and material through an embedded and embodied lens. Often my works materialize as interactive installations and kinetic sculptures, incorporating electronics, self-built machines and hand-written texts, both executable and readable. With my work I aim to question and subvert the dominant narratives of our largely technologically-mediated social reality, and instead try to enact alternative technological (and non-technological) immediacies.

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.
