About the artist
Margareta Klose’s online presentation „selfie competence“ revolves around the issues of self perception, self representation and self optimization. The artist takes on practices of sincere self exploration and reflects on the language of advertising and consumerism. In an ensemble of videos of her performances and documentations of interventions in semi-public space, Margareta Klose confronts us in a humorous way with the question: What is the self in our digital age of late capitalism?
