Aging Accordingly is a sculpture taking the own body as the primary architecture. Wondering on where physical and psychical transformations lead, aging is perceived as a form of architectural transformation, whereby the body becomes both the builder and the building.

    About the artist

    The sculptor Dorothea Nold (*1981) deals in her sculptural and installation works with the transformation of social, physical and urban spaces and their connection and interrelation to architectural forms. It is often the experiences arising during her travels and sojourns in different countries and various socio-cultural contexts, which serve as the primary catalyst for specific working methods, a resolute response to materials, and both formal and contentual references. In 2008, Dorothea Nold experienced a magnitude 7.8 earthquake in China. In her artistic practice, she has since consciously worked with unstable components, such as materials whose properties contradict their use.

    Dorothea Nold graduated from the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris, is doing an PhD at the HfbK Hamburg and has received numerous grants, including a working grant from the Stiftung Kunstfonds (2020), a catalogue grant from the Senate of Berlin (2020) and a PhD grant from Cusanuswerk e.V. (2013-2016). She has been invited to residencies in China, Mali, Armenia and Switzerland, among others. Her work is shown internationally.
