Gender, Art and Social Media -Behind the Screen with Sopie SteinerThursday 13 May at 6:00 pm (Berlin)5:00 pm (London)noon (NYC) 

In her work, Sophie Steiner is exploring how new technologies and social media affects human behavior, perception, identity, and especially mental health.

Besides her role as an artist, she is also a student in the disciplines of art history and gender studies. Her studies influence her artistic work a lot because she gains a lot of inspiration from scientific theories. She has gained media attention through her ongoing series BEHIND THE SURFACE which aims to highlight the impact of beauty standards on social media on young women and their mental health. The project developed into an interactive IRL installation giving voice to everyone who feels marginalized and repressed by society.

In times of pandemic, when there is nothing left to share but oneself, we are more exposed to ourselves through the objectified visibility of ourselves through smartphone or notebook camera than ever before. But what does that do to us? And how much is human thinking and behavior already shaped by new technologies? I am currently working on a video project in which I am trying to explore these questions.

UBUNTUFive Rooms from the Harry David CollectionThe South African term ubuntu can be translated as “humanness”, “humanity towards others”, “human nature” and “a sense of common humanity”. As a title for this exhibition, the phrase refers to notions of community and a spirit of sharing.The inaugural exhibition for The Harry David Collection, Ubuntu introduces five distinct curatorial viewpoints unfolding across five “rooms” or spaces. Each presents a personal selection of works from the collection chosen by five different artists and curators. In this way, the collection functions as a resource that is open to interpretation, with each space enabling works to be encountered as a series of unique conversations.The five “rooms” are designed by RIBA award-winning KallosTurin architects (London and San Francisco). The selection of works has been made by Rashid Johnson, an acclaimed visual artist; Osei Bonsu, curator of international art at Tate Modern; Elvira Dyangani Ose, art writer and gallerist; Burkhard Varnholt, collector; and Emily Tsingou, art advisor to The Harry David collection.
