Influenced by her early childhood in East Germany, followed by the sudden flood of new technology, neon colours and fantastical toys after German reunification when she was 8, artist Super Future Kid’s work provides an escape into a saturated sensory experience reminiscent of this time. Through a mix of painting, sculpture and installation viewers may venture into surreal new worlds filled with pink skies, cowboys, sweets, stylised flowers and mushrooms. Now living in London, we talk to Super Future Kid about digital culture favourite childhood toys, the adventure of making sculptures and the importance of escapism.
