Linda Jasmin Mayer (1986-IT)

Her work develops predominantly
through mediums of video art and
installation, often with sculptural and
participatory aspects. She explores
topics of social alienation and the
interplay between humanity and
nature. In her current project she
investigates the metamorphosis
(or hybridisation) of human and bird
and aims to show how the loss of
belonging forces the hybrid creature to
look for new points of reference and to
review its purpose.

She received a MFA from the Time and
Space Arts study programme of the
Finnish Academy of Fine Arts, Helsinki
in 2014 and a BFA in Sculpture Studies
from the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera,
Milan in 2010. She studied at the
School of Media Arts of the Royal
Danish Academy of Fine Arts,
Copenhagen in 2014 and 2015.
In 2018 she participated in the ISP of
Maumaus in Lisbon. Currently she is a
resident of the Practice-based
Research in Visual Arts programme of
HISK in Gent.

Linda Jasmin Mayer’s work has been
shown in solo and group exhibitions in
Italy, Spain, Finland, Denmark, Austria,
Germany, Bulgaria, Belgium, Sri Lanka,
Egypt, Russia and India.

Her graduation work How to Break the
Ice received the Kuvataideakatemian
Ystav̈ ät prize in 2013. Her video work
Snowcats has been screened at the
Trento Film Festival in 2014 in a
screening curated by MART/Italy.
In 2016 she participated at the
Colombo Art Biennale in Sri Lanka.
In 2018 her film Parallel Worlds was
screened at the 35. Kasseler
Dokumentar und Video Fest.
In 2020 she participated with her work
