(*1985 in Germany) In her photographs, videos, installations and performances Olga Holzschuh deals with the effects of

hierarchical systems in the digital as well as in the analog world on our ways of thinking, acting and

feeling. In particular her attention is directed to gestures and poses that oscillate between ostensively

irreconcilable opposites: power and powerlessness, activity and passivity, self-defense and

defenselessness, fragility and stability.
