Angewandte Interdisciplinary Lab
Jona Wolf studied architecture in
Studio Greg Lynn and Studio Wolf D. Prix, graduating in 2015. Using digital tools like 3D animation and CNC fabrication, they
develop temporary spaces, objects and installations.
Their practice focuses on re-imagining and transforming educational
models and collaborative creation. They are actively engaged in community building and activism, with a focus on empowering
marginalised groups and resistance to state oppression. Jona is part of The Palace Collective, which currently runs an urban
community project in Berlin.
During their residency at AIL, Jona creates a series of works exploring
how cultural body norms and beauty standards reinforce the gender binary. The project aims to empower the gender fluidity
of trans people while also raising awareness of how gender norms affect and restrict everyone in society.
This
is the last event in this series, opening up the temporary studio of Jona Wolf.
