Biography

Andrea Zittel (born 1965) is an American artist based in Joshua Tree, CA. Her art and community work encompasses modes of living and design practice in an ongoing investigation that explores the questions "How to live?" and "What gives life meaning?"

Zittel's work has been described as an "expansive approach to art and space making, creating social sculptures that traverse boundaries between art, architecture, design and technology." Her installations, wearables and sculptures transform the necessities of daily living, such as eating, socializing, sleeping and bathing, "into artful experiments and scenarios for new ways of living.”
