AGNES QUESTIONMARK

Agnes Questionmark (Rome, Italy, 1995) is an artist working across performance, sculpture, video, and installation. Questionmark’s practice examines the self’s boundaries through genetic experiments, surgical operations, and artificial reproductive processes whereby identity becomes unsettled. By forcing her body and her audiences into spaces where humanity fails to assert its normative demands, Questionmark disrupts the biopolitical implications of transgender and transpecies bodies in a human-dominated world. Recent long-durational performances include CHM13hTERT (2023), presented in a public train station at SpazioSERRA, Milan, and TRANSGENESIS (2021), presented by The Orange Garden and Harlesden High Street in London. Her work has been shown at Centre d’Art Contemporain, Geneva; MAXXI Museum, Rome; Malta Biennale, Valletta; Konig Galerie, Berlin; and the 14th Gwangju Biennale. Her writing has been published DRY, Speciwoman, and NERO Magazine. Questionmark is pursuing an MFA at Pratt Institute in New York. She recently launched her first artist book with NERO Editions and exhibited a piece for the 60th Venice Biennale.
