Karolin Meunier
Resident Artist - KSB at TrAIN 2009
Karolin Meunier is an artist and writer based in Berlin. She studied Fine Art and Literature in Mainz and at the Hochschule für bildende Künste Hamburg. From 2007 to 2008 she was attending the Jan Van Eyck Academy in Maastricht as a Researcher in Fine Art. From January to June 2009 she will be the KSB Artist in Residence at TrAIN.
Meunier’s works often revolve around the question how the ‚self’ is constructed and how it stands in relation to other persons within different situations of communication. Besides the further development of experimental text forms, the video camera is an essential tool for the examination of the relationship of public and performer, subjectivity and object.
The semi-scientific gesture of Meunier’s diagram videos serve to connect writing, speaking, temporality and the moving image. In Auto Description Model (2007), the communication between two people is sketched out step by step, including subjective assumptions and projections that become more and more complex through the engaging, thought-provoking, and amusing lecture format.
