Céline Manz is a research-based artist with a multidisciplinary practice. Her aim is to create multilayered narratives that (re-)evaluate researched subject matters in a contemporary context. The work in and with archives is a key factor to this practice, and her critical reflections on established systems of representation are intertwined with a panoply of academic disciplines, such as sociology, psychoanalysis, art history, culture studies, neuroscience or literature. Manz's most recent work cycle 'The Haunting' explores the role of historical spaces as lived-in archives, and how these can be activated as narrative devices.
