Water as a Geoarchive in our Technonatural Present

Su Yu Hsin is an artist and filmmaker based in Berlin. She approaches ecology from the point of view of its close relationship with technology.

Her artistic practice is strongly research-oriented and involves fieldwork where she investigates the political ecologies of water. Her work reflects on technology and the critical infrastructure in which the human and non-human converge. Her analytical and hydropoetic storytelling focuses on map-making, operational photography, and the technical production of geographical knowledge.

Her video installations are exhibited worldwide in museums and International Art Biennials: Bundeskunsthalle Bonn, the Centre Pompidou-Metz, the Museum of Contemporary Art Busan, Taipei Biennial 2020 and 2023, ZKM Karlsruhe, UCCA Center for Contemporary Art, among others.

Her films have been screened at Kurzfilm Festival Hamburg, Experimental Film and Video Festival in Seoul and e-flux.
