Elizabeth McTernan
Interdisciplinary artist based in Berlin, Germany.
Elizabeth McTernan’s practice is a research-oriented and mixed-media exploration of measurement, which seeks to problematize and play with scientific discourses of objectivity. From the Gobi Desert to the Indian Himalayas to the Arctic, McTernan regularly travels to remote landscapes to perform an interdisciplinary practice of mapping. Sometimes this involves a cartography of landscapes: mountains, deserts, the coastlines of islands or puddles. Other times it involves a cartography of objects: lab artifacts, copper, rocks. She process what she finds with actions, installations, new media, drawing, printmaking, sound, essays, and artist books.
