Erich Berger is an artist, curator and cultural worker
His focus is on the intersection of art, science and technology with a critical take on how they transform society and the world at large. Throughout his practice, he has explored the materiality of information, and information and technology as artistic material.
Berger’s current interest in issues of deep time and hybrid ecology led him to work with geological processes, radiogenic phenomena and their socio-political implications in the here and now. He moves between visual arts and science in an area which he also investigates and develops as director of the Bioart Society in Helsinki. His installations, performances and interfaces are exhibited widely and received awards from renowned institutions.
In 2022, he completed a one-month residency at CERN as part of the Accelerate Finland Award, organised in partnership with the curatorial platform Capsula (art-science-nature).
