Goswin Schwendinger
Biography
Goswin Schwendinger is an Austrian artist living and working in London. He studied from 2018 to 2020 on the MFA program at Goldsmiths, University of London. He also received an MSc in Architecture from the ETH Zurich, Switzerland.
Goswin’s artistic practice unfolds at the intersection of science, perception, and the limits of knowledge—an ambiguous terrain where questions of plausibility and meaning arise, but often resist definitive answers. Rather than offering explanations, Goswin invites us into a world where understanding may be felt, sensed, or intuited—beyond the bounds of language.
This liminal space—a grey zone between clarity and ambiguity—is, for Goswin, the realm in which our contemporary condition must be navigated. It is here that he challenges rigid boundaries and explores the possibility of transforming separation into intrinsic connection. His is a hopeful, yet grounded vision, one that underpins a body of work deeply concerned with structures of power and systems of control. Through immersive installations and reflective environments, Goswin creates safe spaces in which viewers can question, reframe, and reimagine both personal and collective narratives.
His material language often explores the friction between the analog and digital realms, and spans sculpture, installation, sound, video, and performance.
