Rosa Zangenberg exists somewhere between the creative and the academic, because she is interested in keeping that unsettling and undeniable feeling—the rudimentariness—at the forefront of their artistic research practice. Sometimes she turns to the visual, to painting, and calls herself an artist, albeit with the wobbly wavering that goes with it, and the material result is wobbly all the same; stuplime, wordless vents in the form of paintings that demand inconvenience in their context.
