Nina Emge is a Zürich-based artist, who reflects on the social dimensions of sound, voice, silence, and practices of listening. Emge’s work is centered around issues such as decentralization, shared working methods, and redistribution. This is evident in her installations and drawings, which reflect her research and archival work, as well as in the production processes of her artworks. Emge is an active member of the Transnational Sound Initiative.
Emge’s works have been exhibited at institutions including Halle für Kunst in Lüneburg, Kunsthalle Zurich, Kunsthalle Bern, Istituto Svizzero Rome, Istituto Svizzero Milano, Frac Bretagne + Centre culturel suisse de Paris, Uferhalle Berlin, Kunstverein Braunschweig, Helmhaus Zurich, Haus Konstruktiv Zurich, and other national and international institutions.
