BIOGRAPHY
Sonia Leimer's practice considers the relationship between physical space and artistic production. Her work negotiates the foundations of our perceptions, especially those which form on the basis of individual, historical and media-influenced patterns of experience. Through the utilisation of film and architecture language Sonia Leimer's practice considers space and time, questioning the significance of materials in the context of its conceptual processing.
