about — Noor Boiten

about

Noor Boiten is a visual artist working with mixed-media video installations. Their practice combines elements of sculpture, video, text, 3D-animation and photography and explores the impact of digital culture on contemporary societal debates, including gender, consumerism and authorship. The underlying relationships and interactions between humans and images provide the conceptual framework for most of their practice.

In their practice Boiten researches the (im)materiality of off- and online spaces contemporary individuals engage with. Their installation-driven work takes inspiration from our relationship to our (non-)physical surrounding and the objects, people or ideas that we interact with within or outside of those spaces. Intermediality and medium-fluidity are important aspects of their practice, as they allow for the work to flexibly change alongside its direct surroundings and the context it finds itself in.

The themes embedded in Boiten's artistic practice, though personal, are also extremely universal. Their work organically navigates in-between these margins, creating an inclusive, intimate and light-hearted setting, combining critical thoughts with humor. By combining images resonating with digital culture and a layered conceptual narrative the installations create a personal yet observative setting in which the work is open for the audience’s association and external context.

Noor Boiten (Utrecht, 1999) holds a cum laude Bachelor of Design in Photography, Film & the Digital from the St. Joost School of Art & Design (BR). They are currently living and working in Rotterdam.
