I am an artist and transdisciplinary designer from Linz. My practice centres on knitted and constructed objects that move between sculpture, installation and performance.
I am interested in how bodies encounter space, and how materials can shape, support or disturb these encounters.
My background in graphic design continues to inform my work through composition, visual language and the translation of ideas into spatial forms. I draw on scientific and theoretical texts—currently on biology, plants and interspecies relations—as sources for developing speculative, performative objects.

Pasta machine Print Workshop
As part of my experimental printmaking I developed a flexible workbench for easy printmaking. With Tertrapacks and a Pastamachine we work in a group of up to 10 people in any given space.
Looking forward to your workshop inquiries via hallo@johannaheller.com
