erika kassnel-henneberg

Erika Kassnel-Henneberg is a conceptual and media artist. Her work operates at the intersection of human authorship and algorithmic image production. At its core is an exploration of artificial intelligence as a cultural and aesthetic structure: as a system that shapes perception, memory, and the construction of meaning, thereby shifting our understanding of humanity itself. The starting point for her work is the emotional structure of memory: fragmentary, layered, and unstable. Her visual worlds oscillate between familiarity and disorientation, without ever clearly settling into the category of dream or nightmare. Kassnel-Henneberg combines photography, video and AI-generated processes with analog techniques such as Polaroid, collage, and material interventions. This results in works that reveal tensions between control and loss of control, materiality and simulation, as well as documentation and construction.
