Liesl Raff’s (1979, Stuttgart) practice is grounded on the relation between materiality and consciousness through a research which brings the semiotics of materials to new and uncharted territories. Not manipulating materials only to convey meaning, she chooses instead materials to amplify the diverse significance they carry within themselves in an idiosyncratic narrative where spirituality meets architecture, and intimacy is intertwined with a reflection on the spaces and materials we inhabit and use. Raff has exhibited at Mumok (Vienna, 2021) with her monumental work Cascade (2020) part of the new acquisitions of the museum, Biennale Freiburg (2021), Gallery Sophie Tappeiner (Vienna, 2021, 2020, 2018, 2017) and Nicolas Krupp Gallery (Basel, 2019) among others. Raff lives and works in Vienna, Austria.
