Susanne Mohr, Intern

Susanne Mohr is currently a master’s student in the cultural studies programme at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. In her previous studies of theatre, film and media studies (Frankfurt/M) female, queer and feminist film, video and performance art emerged as her main interests. Her step into cultural studies went hand in hand with the desire to widen her focus to a greater variety of forms of aesthetic and artistic expressions engaging with philosophical as well as sociopolitical discourses of our times. She sees her internship at Goldrausch as part of that journey. In the past years, she has had various occupations in the field of film culture. Besides that, she has been organising screening and discourse events in collective contexts. She is particularly interested in questions of representation, feminist historiography/herstory and the production conditions of artistic work.

Lucía Sciandro, Intern

Lucía Sciandro is an interdisciplinary artist and art history student from Uruguay currently finishing her studies at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin.

Therefore she is eager to get to know and work closely with this year’s participants and to gain insight into the inner workings of an independent feminist project such as Goldrausch. Since her arrival in Germany in 2014, she has worked and participated in several exhibitions and since 2019 she is a mediator at the James Turrell Installation at the Dorotheenstadt Cemetery in Berlin.
