Internship - Communication & Artist Relations - Studio Apelbaum, Berlin
Studio Apelbaum (in collaboration with Analogdream e.V.), based between Berlin Prenzlauer Berg and Lichtenberg , develops a practice at the intersection of oil painting, technology, and immersive environments.
At the core of the studio are cognitive paintings — layered oil works that reveal hidden images through light, movement, and interaction, using custom-built LED systems and software.
The studio operates as both a production space and a collaborative environment, bringing together painters, engineers, performers, and communicators.
This internship is focused on the development of communication, network-building, and visibility in the lead-up to the exhibition:
