Le travail d’Ulla von Brandenburg se caractérise par la diversité des médiums et supports qu’elle utilise et transforme en une thématique complexe. Les motifs apparaissent alors dans des contextes différents, les performances renvoient aux wall paintings, aux dessins qui eux mêmes s’avèrent être les esquisses des vidéos réalisées par l’artiste; vidéos qui à leur tour deviennent les matrices de futurs objets, sculptures manufacturées. L’idée et l’imagerie du carnaval sont très présentes dans son travail. Elles lui permettent de transgresser en quelque sorte l’ordre social et d’évoquer notre société au travers d’images anciennes, de masques, de costumes relevant de la tradition populaire, mais aussi de partir en quête d’une nouvelle identité tout en mêlant subtilement la réalité et les apparences dans des mises en scènes théâtrales.

Ulla von Brandenburg’s work is characterised by the diversity in the media she uses, which in turn translates into a thematic concentration. Certain motifs appear in different contexts, performances reger back to ideas in wall paintings, drawings prove themselves to be preliminary studies for films, and the props in films become objects in their own right. Her idea of carnival as a legitimate transgression of social order meets with the notion of mask as a desire for new identity and the confusion of reality and appearance in theatrical stagings.

Ulla von Brandenburg works in a diverse range of media to create complex, multi-layered narratives that investigate the thresholds that exist between reality and artifice. Working with film; drawing; installation, and performance, von Brandenburg engages with popular cultural forms from multiple epochs as a means through which to explore contemporary collective experience. Working within seemingly archaic traditions such as the tableau vivant, von Brandenburg appropriates historical source material and transforms it into the present to tacitly reveal the rules that govern our social reality.

Permeated by recurring themes and images sourced from literature; expressionist theatre; early cinema, and pre-Freudian psychoanalysis, von Brandenburg’s practice cross-references back and forth between media creating a language that loops back on itself: endlessly repeating and developing. Concerned with ‘the borders of different consciousness: past and present, alive and dead, real and illusionary’, von Brandenburg creates work positioned uncertainly at the point at which reality ends and the illusion of life, emotions and events begins.
