Amit Goffer is an Israeli/ German artist
living and working in Dusseldorf, Neuss, Germany.
Over the past few years his work has incorporated multiple forms that include sculpture,
installation and painting. Key issues within Goffer art practice explore human’s relationship
to space, architecture and scale to question the social and political challenges within
communities where diverse cultures and religions co-exist. the work investigates physical,
mental and emotional conditions situations, such as of intense pressure, of observing and
being observed, migration and of hope.
Interested in various forms of cultural expression, his work seeks to deal with
metaphorical attributes of architecture and the context in which it can be manifested.
In doing so his installations consider the nature of how we live within and occupy space daily.
For Goffer, the development of an installation is often influenced by the complex nature of
an exhibition space. By inviting audience participation such work takes on a performative
dimension that becomes further interpreted and realized through interaction.
Goffer committed to the idea that there is no ultimate truth: "Through my work I
am aware of the instability of the perspective we take when we look at the world,
as it always merges with the physical and psychological states of the viewer at the given time"
