patricia meier



I am an artist from Zurich who primarily works with music and video. In my work, I celebrate everyday life. I search for stories in my daily experiences, and play with their placement in artistic contexts. Besides my interest in documenting the seemingly ordinary and the intimate, other recurring themes in my art are relationships, especially between humans and dogs, and how I deal with grief, loss and identity. I like to playfully engage with language: in my videos through the use of subtitles, and in my music through song lyrics.

How to Install a Window (2023)

digital video, sound, mural, 13:14 minutes, loop



In this work, I take the viewer on an absurd journey in search of the meaning of the ‘window’. The process of video editing, the obsessiveness, and the desperation of ‘googling’ become palpable. Towards the end, the video gradually shifts from the impersonal to the intimate as I reflect on my personal relationship to windows.
