Sensorium

Evelyn Benčičová (SK/DE) is a visual creator specialising in photography and art direction. With knowledge and experience based on fine art and new media studies at University for Applied Arts in Vienna, Evelyn’s work combines her interest in contemporary culture with academic research to create a unique aesthetic space in which the conceptual meets the visual.

Her collaboration repertoire includes cultural institutions such as Frieze, Royal Opera House, Berghain, Kunsthalle Basel, National Portrait Gallery and MQ Vienna. Evelyn's work was published in internationally released art books and exhibited in galleries and museums around the world. She also received numerous awards for both photography and art-direction, including Hasselblad Masters.

In 2019, Evelyn completed artistic residency in Mimic Studio which shifted her practice into more immersive and experimental forms of story-telling. Audio-visual work Next time die consciously (2018) and nine sum-sorcery (2019) were premiered on the main stage of Atonal Berlin, MIRA in Barcelona and Regenerations in Amsterdam. VR installation Artificial Tears was exhibited at Berlin Photo Week in Kraftwerk and Synthesis Gallery in Berlin.

You can see Evelyn’s Artificial Tears VR installation on 28th August at Berlinka, SNG in Bratislava as a part of Sensorium Festival 2020 X SNG.
