Johanna HULLÁR

Johanna Hullár is a Zurich-based visual artist working with photography, video installations and timebased sculptures.

She graduated from the HTW Berlin with a degree in communication design and holds a
master’s degree in photography from ECAL, University of Art and Design Lausanne. Hullár’s
practice explores themes of connection, materiality, time and perception. She investigates
new ways of mixing still and moving images, playing with notions of surreality and reality,
and generated objects to reflect on possible futures and the interaction of (wo)man-made
and natural materials, presented through a humorous and feminine prism. Hullár’s transdis-
ciplinary approach opens up new visual spaces, offering visitors a sensory experience with
sculptural arrangements frozen in ice, constantly in motion and changing state.

Laureate of the Swiss Design Awards 2024 and Prix de l’ECAL 2020, and nominee for the
Prix Mobilière 2024, Hullár made her institutional debut at Kunsthalle Mannheim in 2021,
followed by the solo shows Floral Landscape (2021), Burning Desires (2022) and Material
Landscape (2023) held in Zurich. She has exhibited internationally, including at Swiss House
Milano (2022), Jungkunst Winterthur (2021), Tokyo Photographic Research (2019), Bien-
nale dell’Immagine Chiasso (2019) and Paris Photo (2018). In 2023, she was resident at La
Becque artist residency, in Fall 2025 she will be artist in residence Paris, at the Fondation Fiminco

in partnership with Plateforme 10 in Lausanne, Switzerland.
