Alongside her artistic practice, Lotte collaborates on various design projects see: speculativepress.info
Lotte Lara Schröder (Amsterdam, 1988) navigates the study of ecological natural phenomena through a narrative voice emanating from the realm of personal experience. Balancing her practice on the border of pragmatic and poetic, her works manifest as drawings, printed matter, soundworks/installation and video. Touching upon her background in design, her works are often underpinned by graphical frameworks and formats.

Her ongoing research has most recently brought her to contemplate volcanic energy; [insert here a sentence or two as to why volcanic energy interests you]. Since receiving the Talent Development grant from the Stimuleringsfonds, her main focus has been developing various works all deriving from her research into Volcanoes as; art object, subject, social surrounding, anomalies, distructors, and ground to look into the more personal and poetic aspects of this predominantly scientific topics.

a room of ones own

part of depend on me (2022) drawing series made together with Nulu Nakalema

A room of one’s own is a collaboration I have with Nulu, a young mother who I met through De Regenboog foundation. It is an ongoing series of drawings in which ‘the room’ is central. Not just any room, but one in which we can give free rein to our imagination and exhibit our ambitions and dreams for the future.

The structure of the room arose from observing the precarious situation in which Nulu finds herself. A number of minimal lines form a spatial structure that we can complete together and individually.

Nulu has gone through an uncertain period in the past two years. She remains in this situation, in which she has seen and lived in many different rooms. This made me hesitate to propose using the room as a structure for our drawing collaboration. But as a structure in which physical and mental spaces merge together, the room seemed the best way to give shape to this precarious situation. The room as a drawing tool has proved to be an exciting field to research for both of us. It is a place where we can use our different backgrounds to work towards a common goal.

We are able to show the power of imagination and how making images can help with healing. The room gives our voice a clear shape and enables us to be part of the world around us. Listen to some audio fragments here

‘Bar’ (2nd instalment)

14.04 – 30.04.2017 at Plan B projects, Amsterdam.

‘Bar’ is one of the first works to emerge out of the research project Volcanic Energy. This spacial installation, in its various states, tries to activate the notion of a different time frame. Current time can make the body feel out of sync with its surroundings. To try and develop a different sensory of the body related to time and space, ‘Bar’ engages in the establishment of temporal relationship between the body and the geological concept of deep-time*.
All elements in and around ‘Bar’ are coordinated to extract oneself from the constant ‘contemporary’ mindset that is strongly implemented on our bodies and brains. The works presented at ‘Bar’ balance between art object and (found) artefact. When in active modus, ‘Bar’ tries to embody (and control) all the elements of its present surroundings; sound, smell and perception. When in passive active state, ‘Bar’ can be observed and utilised as a mental exercise, providing the framework to try and implement the notion of deep time. This temporal extraction from reality, enables the body/mind to step out of the normal contemporary time-frame. Alcoholic drinks help to increase the surrendering of the self and the collective consumption from the volcanic bowls helps to entrench the self into this new environment.

*Deep Time is a concept of geological concept which traces the life time of the earth.

In before i expire, a personal ADD test is being used as the basis, adding new layers to explore the language that is used to explore the 'self' and expose the intergral dynamiscs of this system. The visual language mimics the scientific language of diagrams, statistics, system charts and juxtaposes this analysis with a personal interpretation of the data. To create more freedom for the reader in how to read and deconstruct the produced data.
