Biography
Ingrid Koenig’s studio practice traverses a field of engagements with theoretical physics through visual art, collaborations and relational events – to investigate how the narrative of science enters the human story and becomes materially transformed through art. Koenig is Artist in Residence at TRIUMF, Canada’s national laboratory for particle and nuclear physics, co-organizing processes of collaboration between artists and physicists. Koenig is the recipient of grants from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (co-awarded for the project “Leaning Out of Windows”, 2016-20), the Canada Council, and Goethe Institute. Koenig earned her MFA at the Nova Scotia College of Art & Design. She has exhibited her work in public galleries across Canada, in Europe and New Zealand. Recent publications include RAW DATA – Artistic Transformation co-written with Berlin collaborators, and an article on her partnership with a physics lab in MIT’s journal Leonardo.
