Michal Mitro
Michal Mitro (1989) is an interdisciplinary artist and researcher. Having previously studied psychology and sociology, he is concerned with issues of everyday life and hyper-objects on a planetary scale. He creates sculptural environments with elements of sound, light and digital technologies in which he reflects the sociological imagination. He is interested in the relationships between the human and the more than human world, and the frictional surfaces between the artificial and the natural. His installations combine narratives of reassurance and disquiet, offering a reflection on what a sustainable future for humanity might look like. He is licensed to work with electricity and autonomous solar systems, among other things, and is a postdoctoral researcher in electrical engineering at the Brno University of Technology. In 2020 he graduated from the Faculty of Fine Arts of the Brno University of Technology, and in 2018-2019 he studied, among other places, at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague. He is a laureate of the Oskar Čepan Prize. He lives and works in Brno. (2023)
