Sophie Allerding (she/they) is an interdisciplinary artist interested in the ways we tell stories to each other and how they shape the world around us. Rooted in world building and speculative fiction, Sophie’s practice spans visual and social art, crafting alternative realities and exploring collaborative storytelling to challenge dominant narratives, such as human dominance, over the natural world gender-based power imbalances and the hegemony of Western knowledge systems. Utilising a diversity of media such as role-play, lens-based art, ➫ Sophie’s work offers a platform for re-imagining these narratives and empowering individuals to reshape them.
Sophie is active in the feminist collectives POSSY and Radio Echo Collective and part of .zip, an artist-run interdisciplinary project space in Rotterdam.
