About

Stefan J Schaffeld is an emerging visual artist, practice-led researcher, and professional art therapist from Eindhoven, NL. He currently resides in Northern Germany close to the Dutch border and to the North-sea. He obtained a BA Fine Art from the University for the Creative Arts (UCA), UK and studies currently MA Intercultural Practices with UAL / CSM. His main interest resides in the exploration of encounter through art-based intra-actions as an empathic and critical social practice. Through his collaborative works and installations he addresses the question how these encounters are mediated by our social and cultural expectations resulting in a destabilized Self. With his current body of work he researches preverbal understanding obtained and created through lived experiences in spaces that embrace moments of wonder and the resonance with human and non-human agency Physical processes of transformation are his approach to look from a material perspective at questions that reside in-between subjects, objects, agents, and experiences.
