Biography

Bérénice Serra is a media artist and researcher based in Zürich, Switzerland. She develops both artistic and theoretical projects that question the modes of conception, production, and exchange of cultural forms in the digital age.

Her practice involves web-to-print books, web-based projects, techno-critical writing, online interventions, and installations. Her latest writing explores the materiality of the internet, user-generated content ecology, and tactical publishing practices.

Her work has been featured in numerous international group exhibitions, and she regularly lectures on digital arts and media at cultural and academic institutions.

From 2019 to 2023, she served as the head of the MA Design Éditions program at the École Supérieure d’arts & médias Caen/Cherbourg in France.
