Lotte Andersen
(*1989)

is a British artist working with constructed social interactions, scanned ephemera, sound, video and sculpture to produce installations. Her work forms an investigation into group dynamics, movement within varied contexts, the manipulation of nostalgia, trauma, euphoria and release. Oscillating between investigative, documentary, participatory, and autobiographical; the viewer is often placed within the work, activating it whilst dealing with the implications of their presence.

Lotte Andersen considers sound and video physical objects in space, working with the idea that echoic (sound) memory is stored for longer periods of time than iconic (visual) memory. Presented individually the works function like relics, revealing a residue or core in the process of deconstruction, creating a window toward the wider narrative of her practice. Joy is an act of resistance.
