Jessica Mautner is a multidisciplinary artist, whose work is often a political response to place, space, history and community. Practising mainly in the forms of large scale sculpture, audiovisual installation, and public realm intervention, she regularly collaborates with a sound artist (as louie+jesse), as well as performers and activists. She is interested in the interplay between personal body and external space, including the negotiation and subversion of built and planned environments by maleable organic forms. Texture is often the starting point in her materials-based experimental practice, where process is key. Her work is made and experienced through kinaesthetic and tactile responses.
