Bianca Kennedy
TOY Berlin Masters Award Winner 2019
Bianca Kennedy studied art at the Athens School of Fine Art and the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Munich and graduated as a master student (2017). Scholarships brought her to North America, Barcelona, Athens and Tokyo. Kennedy's animations, VR works and site-specific installations have been shown at CCBB Rio de Janeiro, MACBA Barcelona, Literaturhaus Berlin and the Colombo Art Biennale in Sri Lanka, among others. In her analytical animations she shows the human abyss and regularly works on photographs and drawing series in which she stages self-created miniatures.

Fascinated by body horror, she treats physicality in a tongue-in-cheek way and always looks beneath the surface. Her interest in the staging of the bathtub represents the climax of this examination to date; in the 3-channel installation and her series of drawings (We're all in this together, 2018) she gathered all human emotions there and also brings the viewer himself into the bathtub (VR all in this together, 2018).

In collaboration with The Swan Collective she creates video and virtual reality works that deal with the future of evolution. Utopian scenarios claim, for example, the fusion of humans, animals and plants (HYBRID, 2016) or the saturation of world hunger by insects that are not enthusiastic about this idea (ANIMALIA SUM, 2019).
