Pipilotti Rist has never ceased to amaze us with inquiries and provoke us into artistic and aesthetic psychic landscapes, landscapes that penetrate the deeper layers of personal conscience and the collective consciousness, often midway between the two in a powerful and elusive . Rist audiovisual facilities open a window into a strange world that can range from colorful and sensual fluidity Sip My Ocean (1996) To the Envelopes interactions with architectural spaces of Homo Sapiens Sapiens, projected onto the roof of the church of San Stae in Venice (2005). But his work also is striking and daring when it uses its body as an expressive vehicle to make categorical statements on representations and perceptions of femininity, for example in the famous video of their early'm Not The Girl Who Misses Much ( 1986) or in the loop of Times Square Open My Glade, 2000.

Pipilotti Rist has exhibited her works in museums around the world, including the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the MoMA in New York and more recently in the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam and the Kiasma Museum in Helsinki that submitted the sample Elixir .
