Pipilotti Rist



Pipilotti Rist started with graphic design, drawing and stage set creation
Eventually moved to working with video and digital imaging
Uses an ironic or satirical tone
Works often with human emotions and her individual perspective of the world

Her Process:
Maps ideas through other ideas or conversational thoughts
Gathers huge amount of material
Sorts through material and deletes unnecessary work
Allows chance and what she is looking for work together
Usually works alone or with a small team through the internet

I’m Not the Girl Who Misses Much 1986 Video Still
Sip My Ocean 1996 Video Installation
Ever is Over All 1997 Video Installation
