Soraya Niptuh (°1987, Los Angeles, United States) creates media artworks and conceptual artworks. By examining the ambiguity and origination via retakes and variations, Niptuh makes work that deals with the documentation of events and the question of how they can be presented. The work tries to express this with the help of physics and technology, but not by telling a story or creating a metaphor.
Her media artworks are an investigation into representations of (seemingly) concrete ages and situations as well as depictions and ideas that can only be realized in media art. With the use of appropriated materials which are borrowed from a day-to-day context, she tries to increase the dynamic between audience and author by objectifying emotions and investigating the duality that develops through different interpretations.
Her works never shows the complete structure. This results in the fact that the artist can easily imagine an own interpretation without being hindered by the historical reality. With Plato’s allegory of the cave in mind, she presents everyday objects as well as references to texts, painting and architecture. Pompous writings and Utopian constructivist designs are juxtaposed with trivial objects. Categories are subtly reversed.
She creates situations in which everyday objects are altered or detached from their natural function. By applying specific combinations and certain manipulations, different functions and/or contexts are created.
