Aline Schwörer

Aline Schwörer (born 1993) is an artist and biologist. Her sculptures deal with the exploitation of the biosphere, the 'body of the earth' and its living creatures. The artist scrutinises the interaction between humans, the environment and time. In doing so, she creates hypothetical future scenarios and fakes archaeological objects.

In her works, naturalness and artificiality merge inseparably. She also experiments with the production of her own bioplastics, builds molds from agar agar instead of silicone, and recycles materials.

After a degree in biology Aline Schwörer is a graduate of the Berlin University of the Arts (UDK) and was awarded the prestigious UDK President's Prize in 2022. Since then, she has participated in group and solo exhibitions in galleries and institutions throughout Germany, Cuba, and the USA, including HAUNT Berlin, Festival Internacional de Cine y Medio Ambiente del Caribe, Isla Verde, Cuba, Echo Contemporary Art, Atlanta, Kunstverein Meißen and more. She is a member of the frontviews collective and Unknown Recipients. With the latter, she took part in documenta fifteen in 2022.
