short biography
Eva Funk is an Austrian artist based in Berlin. She studied at the Berlin University of the Arts and The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts with an emphasis on sculpture and time based media.
Her artistic work centers on familiar yet often overlooked elements of her surroundings—stories, actions, and joy. She engages equally with questions of solidarity, space, and aesthetics. Her use of diverse materials and methods manifests in interventions, installations, and interdisciplinary projects. By reinterpreting elements of found environments, she explores the relationships between object, space, and language. Her work encourages a playful re-evaluation of the social value of spaces, fostering a deeper appreciation for our complex interactions with the environments we inhabit.
Eva Funk am committed to collaborative approaches in co-creating experiential spaces and exploring new modes of learning and teaching. She is involved in projects and collectives such as Kiosk des Arts, rototo press, Mindscape Universe and BIG HIT.
She was Artist in Residence at institutions such as Cité internationale des Arts Paris, das fliegende Künstler:innenzimmer (Crespo Foundation), Artists Unlimited, Künstlerhaus Lukas, kunstwerk:krastal or PRAKSIS Oslo. Her work has been exhibited internationally and is part of public collections in Austria, Germany and France.
