 Bio short:

Ursula Endlicher is a new media and interdisciplinary artist working with interactive media and the Internet since the early 1990s. She investigates structural components and interfaces of digital and "natural" networks and creates works in contrasting formats and media including net art, AR, AI/ML, installation, performance, environmental works, and dinners - often in combination thereof. In her works humans and more-than-humans, machines and nature, are inspired by each others' behavior - often in humorous ways - and create new forms and "worlds" in between. Thematizing the interplay of digital and natural resources she uses diverse media and materials such as code, environmental real-time data, video, ceramics, plants and food, stimulating the audience's conceptual and multi-sensory perceptions. Her work has been shown at Chronus Art Center, Shanghai; Haus der Elektronischen Künste, Basel; Transmediale, Berlin; SIGGRAPH, Yokohama; ZERO1 Biennial; at Eyebeam, NY; Harvestworks, NY, and on Turbulence.org; and in galleries in the US and EU. Her work is part of the Whitney Museum of American Art's artport collection. She received the 2024 Austrian Art Award for Media Art by BMKOES, Vienna.

 Bio longer:

Ursula Endlicher turns code into physical form. Conversely, she imposes a physical element onto virtual systems. An Austrian-born NYC-based media artist who has worked since the early '90s with interactive media and the Internet, she is investigating and using the - often hidden - structural components, architectures and interfaces of the networked world as topic and creative engine for her own work. By superimposing rule sets from the Internet with processes in the material world, surprising and often humorous perspectives on the "nature" of either world are discovered and further exploited. Her work combines Internet art, AR, AI/ML, installations, performances, environmental works and dinners; code and real-time data are determining their layout and choreographies.

Among her most well known work is "html_butoh", an net art work for the HTML language, commissioned by one of the first leading websites supporting Internet Art, Turbulence.org. Another notable work, "Light and Dark Networks", commissioned by the Whitney Museum of American Art for artport, populated the museum's website with different "data performances" driven by changes in New York City's weather and air quality. Recently, the work was also featured on Hek.ch - the website of the Haus der Elektronischen Künste, Basel, and at the Chronus Art Center, Shanghai, as part of an exhibit about the histories of net art "We-Link:Sideways", where it utilized weather and environmental data from each location.

In Endlicher's performative installation "FAR-FLUNG's (fx) form", presented at Eyebeam in NY in 2018, an "intelligent" space rewarded the audience with a re-enactment of their collective data.
Her multiple-media installations incorporate ceramics, video, data, agricultural fields and food; in one of these recent installations, "Input Field Form #2", she transformed the Artist Residency application form - the HTML form that gathers user information through Input Fields - into an agricultural field at ChaNorth in Upstate NY during the "Process Park" residency, inviting visitors to celebrate these re-coded systems by sampling "edible HTML".

One of her latest work series, "Input Field reversal" reflects on the intertwined relationship of ecology and technology and are interactive digital gardens that "turn" IRL vegetables and trees into interfaces driven by real-time weather data. "Input Field reversal #1" was shown at Pratt Manhattan Gallery in New York in spring 2022. "Input Field reversal #2" was shown at HEK (House of Electronic Arts) in Basel in fall 2022 which was about the trees on the square outside HEK. A related work (also at HEK), "Custom HTML Plant Tags", a digital image series, was accessible through an Augmented Reality experience by scanning the bark of trees outside HEK, and then access them as NFTs at HEK.editions on OBJKT. A third of each sold NFTs was donated to nature preservation. "Input Field reversal #3" was shown at Harvestworks in Nolan Park on Governors Island in 2023.

In her most recent works "The HTMLgardeness - Sowing HTML but Harvesting AI" and the newly produced WebAR "bARk" Endlicher uses augmented reality, choreography and shared meals to formulate environmental critique. By scanning the bark of a tree - a "natural QR code" - tree-inspired and otherwise hidden dances of The HTMLgardeness are revealed during these walks.

Her work has also been exhibited and performed nationally and internationally at transmediale Berlin; SIGGRAPH Asia, Yokohama; ZERO1 Biennial; WUK, Vienna; Center for Contemporary Art Ujazdowski Castle, Warsaw; and Harvestworks, NY; and in galleries in the US and Europe. Her work is part of the Whitney Museum of American Art's artport collection. She received the 2024 Austrian Art Award for Media Art by BMKOES, Vienna.
