Sarah van Lamsweerde

Sarah van Lamsweerde (Brussels b. 1971) is an artist working mainly with performances and installations. In 2008, she completed her Masters in artistic research and performance at Dasarts, Amsterdam. In her work she extricates new sense from basic binaries such as language versus image, body versus memory and performer versus spectator. Her work has been shown in The Netherlands and internationally, in both visual arts and performance contexts such as P////AKT Platform For Visual Arts, the Something Raw Festival (Amsterdam), Incubate (Tilburg), ANTI-festival for Contemporary Art (Finland), Recyclart Art Centre and Performatik (Brussels). Her projects often start with research and tend to be labour-intensive processes in which working inspires thinking. Together with Bojana Mladenovic and Norberto Llopis Segarra she has founded Stichting Tre Tigri, to enable individual as well as collective projects in limbo – in between art disciplines. Since 2011, she is an associate artist at Het Veem Theater in Amsterdam. Besides her own work, she participates in projects by other artists, such as Zhana Ivanova and Ivana Müller.
