Mariana Süssekind is a Brazilian artist living in Berlin. Graduated in Visual Communication with MBAs in Photography and in Documentary Cinema. For her master's degree in Communication and Aesthetic she developed a research on “Lacunar Narratives in Contemporary Art”. Since 2001, she has been working with film and video editing, especially dedicated to video-art, documentaries and found footage.

In her recent searches Mariana combines artisanal photography, analog processes and digital video to address topics such as memory, self-representation and montage. Through experimentation with uncontrolled images, and an agonizing observance of time, the artist dives into the feminine territory, where her body is the measure, the just form of her possibilities in the now.
