ABOUT

MARTINA LANG

Martina is an art&science practitioner and cross-disciplinary researcher working across photography, installation, and experience-based practice. Her work engages with societal conditions, wicked problems, and ecological systems, examining how climate crisis and culture shape perception, behavior, and responsibility. Focusing on asymmetrical power relations, decision-making, and stress scenarios, her practice aims to illuminate scientific and social dynamics through experiential forms of inquiry.
