Angelika Schori
Born 1981 in Biel, CH
Lives and works in Basel
In her artistic practice, Angelika Schori engages with observations in visual perception, philosophy, and phenomenology. She works in painting, sculpture, installation, and, more recently, photography. In“Sichtweise,” she focuses on artistic analyses of codified viewing processes, which she partly manipulates, but partly leaves to the viewer to answer such open questions of perception.
The artist aims to capture ephemeral moments and “preserve” them for the audience. Her work is a profound reflection on individual perception and its significance in everyday life. While aiming to highlight the beauty in the inconspicuous, she underscores its uniqueness for each individual person and encourages the viewer to consciously perceive and appreciate the fleeting aesthetic moments in their own lives.
Schori’s works address the limited perspectives of our perception and encourage questioning established notions and viewpoints. They emphasize how our view of the world is always shaped and limited by our individual standpoint and invite us to consider things from different perspectives. She reminds us that in the quiet of everyday life lies a world full of subtle beauty and significance, waiting to be discovered andappreciated. Through her works, which often include elements of painting, these invisible dimensions are revealed to us, and we learn to view the world not just superficially, but in its full depth.
Angelika Schori received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 2010 from the FHNW/HGK (School of Fine Arts) in Basel, where she also completed her MFA in 2014, both with Prof. Renée Levi. She has exhibited extensively in Switzerland, Germany, France, and the United States in group and solo shows.
