Vivian is a multimedia artist and art therapist (in education) who lives both in Vienna and in the countryside, surrounded by the wonderful nature of the Waldviertel region. As a synesthetic and highly sensitive artist, she uses the transforming process of perceiving, seeing, feeling, breathing, and becoming the color, poem, or tune itself. Her artworks are vivid, intuitive, and honest. She is inspired by nature, organic forms, myths, and old languages, which are interwoven into her artwork, as are anti-patriarchy, female empowerment, and high sensitivity.

kunst und natur bilden eine wundervolle synergie. sie sind meine lehrmeisterinnen und meine spiegel. sie liefern ehrliche antworten auf fast alle fragen, die ich nur stellen kann. der prozess zwischen fragen und möglicher antwort, der metaphysische dialog bilden den raum für mein kunstwerk. meine musik, meine dichtung, meine malerei.

…or something like this:

Art and nature need each other; they share a synergetic bond. As my mentors, they are not only mirrors for me, but they also offer fierce honesty and almost answer every question I pose. Within this questioning sphere lies a metaphysical dialogue that evolves through my artwork—be it music, poetry, or painting.

Together with her partner Fredonik, Vivian forms the site-specific art group BACH//fredonik, focusing on installations that connect with nature and emerge in the specific moment of performance.
