Glausnitzer-Smith examines several aspects of collecting objects, the re-collection of past ideas and images, thought voices in autobiographical context by means of Live Performances and ‘Performance for the Camera’ where the understanding of ‘self’ as portraiture surpasses a two-dimensional layer. Photographic images reflect a temporary trueness to the artist’s enquiry and inventive methods to re-position herself in the world of life’s occurrences. Her own archived Performance Objects are placed and conceptually displaced in relation to a cultural ‘tapestry’, questioning the material origin, nostalgic implications and experiential memory.

Places for Glausnitzer-Smith’s work concentrate in virtual spaces (website-project), temporary floors, site-specific places, the Public, International Festivals and Events, Radio Interviews, Books and Publications, Essays, Open Studio, Werftraum Performance Art Workshops, curatorial projects, appointed situations and invented public projects.

She lives and works in Braunschweig and London, former Senior Lecturer at Kingston University, external examiner and visiting lecturer in Helsinki, Copenhagen and Halle.

Actions and Exhibitions took place in USA, Germany, UK, France, Scotland, Denmark, Austria, New Zealand, Cyprus, Finland, Greece, China, Serbia, Netherlands, India, Hong Kong, Italy, Spain, Canada, Bangladesh, Australia, private collections at NIVIA in Jalandhar, India.
