*1978 Vienna, Austria | lives and works in Berlin

Ines Lechleitner’s research-based works feature a wide range of artistic mediums: photography, video, sound, drawing, sculpture, performance and artist book. In her work she analyzes the interaction between different opportunities of communication and investigates how sound, images and text relate to each other. She especially deals with systems of non-verbal communication (such as sign language or acoustic language) with regard to the different spaces they take place in. Following this interest Lechleitner most lately investigated the interchangeability of sensory experiences. How does one sense relate to the other? How can one sensory experience be evoked by another or even transferred into another? In consequence the artist also explores, how a certain sensory impression or certain motif can be translated from one medium into another.
