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 and mutate along with new technologies. Through processes of poetic engineering and experimental imaging methods, my practice poses research questions about data and the material world in an embedded and embodied manner. Those often involve experiments that 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 break with the dominant narratives around our largely technologically-mediated social reality and 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.
