Ciel Grommen
PRESENT
In her transdisciplinary practice, Ciel plays with elements from the visual arts and architecture. In her research, she does not maintain a critical distance, but instead engages with the community or place where she is staying (whether for a long period or not). In this way, she creates new frameworks for encounters through various art forms.
