Katrina Niebergal

installatie - sculptuur - film

Katrina Niebergal (she/her) is a Canadian-(settler-colonial)-born, Rotterdam-based artist, working across various media and processes, including research, experimental filmmaking, scenographic installation, sculpture, sound and language. Increasingly, Katrina is combining these into long-term, multifaceted, story-telling and world-making projects with an emphasis on the condition/s of poetic consciousness; the dubious and multiform subject of the feminine/androgynous “irrational”; and the pre-historic and speculative-future epochs (possible times before and after patriarchy). Her current work, a research-led, experimental filmmaking project, concerns the Moon, the Earthbound and the conquest of space.

Katrina received her MA from the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague (2019) and her BFA in Visual Arts from Emily Carr University of Art + Design (2013). She was the founder/facilitator of The Pole, Rotterdam (2018–2022), and is currently a member of Filmwerkplaats and the Experimental Pizza Club.

    • In samenwerking met: an other world
    • Locatie: , Rotterdam
    • Studio Dreams is an artist’s studio in Rotterdam, located in the former De Player space in Afrikaanderwijk, since approximately September 2022. At some point in our very early days, one of us suggested to make a group exhibition together as a way to bond as studio mates, but also to locate, relocate, dislocate, localize and vocalize our sharing of space and our place and presence in the neighborhood.

    • come, Memory is a film and scenographic installation, a result of a long trajectory of research, experimentation and collaboration, that centers on a series of ancient (especially Neolithic) European sacred sites, and looks speculatively, through embedded, eroded and residual evidence, at the presence/absence of the divine feminine.

    Project

    • In samenwerking met: Good Times Bad Times community radio, Rotterdam
    • Locatie: , Rotterdam
    • "Come to your senses" is a monthly radio show, broadcast on Good Times Bad Times community radio, Rotterdam. Through voice, sound, and song, it explores senso-r-eality; poetic capacity; cosmic entanglement; and beyond — and acts as a kind-of-notion-device or sort-of-diary for my life, research, and art practice.

    • In samenwerking met: project space at7 and Available and The Rat, Rotterdam
    • Locatie: Gouwstraat 21, Rotterdam
    • Together, the artists use the space to ask incomplete questions - presenting moments of intuitive object-making. The works present chapters in larger anthologies, characters of the past interacting with the present, and personal-historical weaves which invite us in and branch outside the exhibition space for the upcoming weeks.
