“Sophie La Rosière is a gift to my life. She gave me a key to a door I would have never opened otherwise. Meaning, what Sophie experienced, and what I experienced through her and was able to conduct with my hands, has become a strata of my memory and my life.”
— Artist Iris Häussler

Artist Iris Häussler curated by award-winning curator Catherine Sicot

“Iris' ability to be possessed by fictional characters is extremely powerful. It all starts in the studio – in Iris' hands – as a one-on-one between her and her characters. Then the work grows out of the studio to include individuals and organizations who become part of the project on different levels. Iris' practice is both solitary and collaborative; she touches upon extremes in artistic creation and masters and explores various medium and practices. The resulting experience for the viewer taps into the full-spectrum of the human experience: it's kinaesthetic, it's sensual, it requires the use of your imagination and your analytical mind. Iris calls her works 'novels in three dimensions' and perceives them as 'Gesamtkunstwerk', total works of art.”
