Seedless Fruits

Stefanie Schwarzwimmer (AT)

Tanja speaks English and excels at small talk. Thorsten enjoys eating “Pocket Coffee.” Tillmann loves team-building events—he recently found one of the three door openers needed to escape the Chamber of Horrors during a group visit to an “escape room.” Thorsten is in the top tax bracket. Tanja is doing Veganuary. Tillmann is the first to be let go.

Seedless Fruits is about the founding of a new company whose product or service remains undefined. We drift through an imposing corporate headquarters that gradually begins to crack and crumble. It is a satirical commentary on the dark sides of neoliberal office culture and alienated labor within a self-perpetuating system of value creation—without content.

    Stefanie Schwarzwimmer

    Stefanie Schwarzwimmer (*1990 in Linz) is a multimedia artist who lives and works in Berlin. From 2012 to 2018, she studied art and digital media at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna under Constanze Ruhm. Her graduation film Silent Revolution was awarded the Academy Prize. Schwarzwimmer completed the Berlin Programme for Artists in 2017 and was a participant in the Goldrausch programme in 2022. Her work has been exhibited internationally in solo and group exhibitions. In her works, she builds virtual spaces consisting of memories, media images and pop culture elements. They can be read as satirical and self-critical barometers of social trends. Topics such as content creation, self-optimisation, reality TV, consumer culture and questions about the apparent evidential power of the image find their way into her video works and installations.
