About

Amanda Steggell, artist, born in Yokohama, based in Oslo, works all over the place.

I have a background in choreography which has become an expanded practice that crosses many fields. My interest is in the allurement and uncanniness of technology and its related devices with which I share my life. My interdisciplinary work combines and shifts across the scope of the performing, visual, sonic and media arts. I have worked extensively with digital and communications technologies since the mid-1990s when I also co-founded the Motherboard project with Per Platou (www.liveart.org). In 2007 I gained a PhD-alternative qualification for artists in Norway for my artistic research in synaesthesia and contemporary live art practice. My recent work has been presented in science/technology museums in the form of participatory installations as well as in public space as urban interventions.
