BIO

Viktoria Heiser’s work examines the processes of human cognition, language, and symbolism. Her practice integrates philosophical concepts to explore human behavior and perception, establishing an interplay between form and conceptual analysis.

Heiser was born in 1998 in Bratislava, Slovakia, where she studied Graphic Design at the Secondary School of Applied Arts Josefa Vydru from 2014 to 2018. From 2018 Heiser started her studies at the University of Fine Art in Dresden, Germany, under the guidance of Nevin Aladag, eventually graduating with a diploma in 2023.
