Richard Hoeck
Richard Hoeck is a Vienna-based multimedia artist working in installation, sculpture, performance, photography and video. Hoeck's work explores worldviews, social conditions, and the possibilities of perception. In recent years, Hoeck has increasingly devoted his attention to the changing relationship between haptics and optics, between body and image. Together with his long-time collaborator John Miller, they use the inherent materiality of mannequins to explore bodies, surfaces, and transformation as displacement grows due to more of our life happening in the digital space.
