Biography
Melbourne-based artist Daniel von Sturmer was born in 1972 in Auckland, New Zealand. Von Sturmer started out as a painter, later working mainly as a video and mixed media installation artist. His video installations and architectural interventions confound the viewer’s sense of space, scale and orientation. Using everyday objects the artist creates visual experiments, playing with gravity and weightlessness, movement and stillness. The artist studied Honours in fine art at RMIT University in Melbourne in during 1993-96 and finished his Master of Arts (research) in 1999 at the same university. Later he spent one year at the Sandberg Institute in Amsterdam.
