Michaela Lakova
Michaela Lakova (BG) is a visual artist and researcher currently based between Rotterdam and Sofia. Throughout her work, Lakova explores how the generation of digital traces and their problematic resistance to being deleted impact our perception of data ownership. Investigating the ethics of deletion and recovery of data, Michaela analyses and interprets the notion of digital information by considering its slippery nature, superimposing processes of digital recovery over the materiality of human memory.
Michaela occasionally works as a freelance videographer and photographer within the cultural sector. Her video portfolio could be seen at video.mlakova.org.
She holds a BA in Stage and Screen Design from the National Academy for Theatre and Film Arts (NATFA), Sofia (2006-2011), and an MA in Media Design and Communication from Piet Zwart Institute, Rotterdam (2012-2014). (2024)
