Marie Munk
Marie Munk is an interdisciplinary artist working primarily with sculpture and installation. She examines how advancements in info-tech, biotech, and commerce shape our environment, behavior, and bodies. Munk creates alternative realities that blend playful and adorable elements with the eerie and unsettling. Using silicone as a metaphor for the body, she explores societal issues through our relationship with physical form. By merging sci-fi and humor in bizarre hypothetical scenarios, Munk offers commentary on our familiar present and an uncertain future.
Marie Munk has exhibited work at Mudam Museum of Modern Art, Luxembourg; Gl. Holtegaard, Denmark; and 7th Anyang Public Art Project (APAP7), Seoul, among others.
