JULIANA BORINSKI - BIOGRAPHY

Juliana Borinski is an artist based in Berlin and Paris, and works in the fields of photography and vi-deo. She develops facilities at the intersection of the iconography and iconoclasm. Her works often incorporate techniques and materials that build connections that converge with the theory of de-constructionism. Positioned next to the contemporary technological complexity, they evoke sensory experiences: the contemplation of abstract phenomena which deeply questioning the legitimacy of the interface, its deconstruction and therefore the absence of something in the original target of the media .

Her works can be considered as imperfect translators of the reality, which focus not only to ques-tion its operation and aesthetic potential, but that prolong the issue of media as an interface. Her photographic work, questions in the same vein as the physical subject of the photograph that the sociological object.

Her work has recently been shown in various art events: IFFR Rotterdam, Huis Sonneveld National Architecture Institute (NAI) (personal exhibition) the Netherlands, Tantamount, Kanazawa, Japan, ISEA 2010, MKK Dortmund, Almost Cinema, Voorhuit Gent, Belgium, Disseminação IV, Palacio das your Ar, Belo Horizonte, Brasil, WRO biennial media for ar t, Wroclaw, Poland.

She was nominated for several awards, including the Tiger Award, Rotterdam (NL) BM.Mediale, Begheim (DE), Media in Space, Stuttgart (DE), or Liedts Messen-Award Foundation in collaboration with ZKM (DER), Gent (B) and WRO Media Art Biennale (PL).

Born in 1979 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, she studied at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne (KHM) in Germany under the direction of Valie Export, Jürgen Klauke and Matthias Müller, where she gradua-ted with honors in 2007. Between 2004 and 2005 she studied at the Villa Arson in Nice. Since 2011 she taught at Royal Academy (KASK) in Ghent (B) and currently resides in the Cité Internationale des Arts Paris (F).


+ A few drops of a crystalline solution are placed on an empty slide in a customized projector. The crys-tallization’s process and all its induced movements are projected live. Using the projector’s heat, the reaction’s time varies from 20 min to a few hours (depending on solution’s concentration and tem-perature or humidity in the exhibition space). Each slide is replaced after stabilization of the «image».

As a pure cinematic abstraction, LCD literally shows the phenomenon of crystallization. This principle is the chemical basis of picture’s fixation in photography (an cinema by the way) and is also in use in modern computers or TV screens based on liquid crystals displays. Far from any technical application, LCD simply refers to contemplation and original magic of the ancient optical appara-tus.

In the art work Mnemosigne the afterlife as fundamental concept of images and their signi-ficance (Aby Waburg) is rendered to an abstract slide projection of cinematographic codes written into the material of celluloid invented by Kodak. These historical signification codes were to find on the border of the material of projection and normally stayed invisible. In this anachronogical approach to our time based media is turned ad absurdum, slides disappear, Kodak disappears, as also its related knowledge of interpretation…

+ Borinski is also devoting one ongoing project to the figure of Joseph Plateau. Every book on the history of film mentions this Belgian professor (1801- 1881) as the scientist that perfected the basic principle for creating the suggestion of motion, which eventually led to the development of cinema. However well accredited for his scientific demonstration of animation as an optical illusion, most of his other pioneering achievements still remain underexposed. In 2011 Borinski started an ongoing project that refers back to Plateau’s research on surface tension and the vi-sual aids he created to investigate this phenomenon, including wire models. 7 With the pun in her title Surfaces of Plateau (1001 pictures) she alludes both to the digital realm (one’s and zero’s), to Arab fairy tales and to the Mille Plateaux book by Deleuze and Guattari. The same verbal playfulness Borinski also recurs in works such as the slide projections Mnemosigne (2012) and LCD (2008).

With the same conceptual wit Borinski has printed twenty-four frames of found 35mm footage on top of each other, compressing one second of average film viewing into a single snapshot: The Dark Mirror (2011-2013). In the contemporary context of digital ‘horror vacui,’ driven by an endless accumulation of information on silicon chips, flash drives and virtual clouds, such a physical layering of time fragments seems totally primitive. Analogue media are rapidly becoming an anomaly. The pratical requirements are too labour intensive, factories and laboratories close one after the other and what was once the standard, is now rapidly becoming the exception. Yet these ‘slow’ characteristics are exactly what appeals to Borinski. With each of her composite, simple and yet complex pictures she invites us to

Who’s Afraid of the Void II, 2013Silver print on Cybachrome, 270 x 90 cm uniqueCourtesy Galerie Jérôme Poggi, Paris

+ Who is afraid of the void? is the title of one of the newest works by Juliana Borinski. In the present solo show most images indeed seem to depict nothing recognizable. Borinski provides an answer to this metaphysical question by offering her public a confrontation with the very physical properties of the image. In her unorthodox hands, a picture becomes an object, it’s material manifestation is foregrounded to the point that the signifier becomes the signified. A discarded remainder of a photographic roll of film is exposed and then printed on large perl paper: Who is Afraid of the Void (2013). A typical piece of insignificant ‘waste’ is thus upgraded to receive maximum attention. Pos-thumously, so to speak, as such photographic materials are disappearing quickly out of circulation.

1+1=0, 2009-2011 Ring, Unilimted editionCourtesy Galerie Jérôme Poggi, Paris

+ By cutting the nickel silver borders of two one-euro coins and by joining them in a configuration where two spheres get into contact, Juliana Bo-rinski obtains an apparently harmless but striking product. This permutation interferes with the modes of functioning of money, as it rectifies its function and redirects its circulation. The metal coin — understood as a reserve of value which can be accumulated while keeping its fluidity — migrates from a status of “mean of exchange” to a status of “luxury good” and “design object”.
