“Margarita Wenzel, multiplying her fields of inquiry around human and sonic interactions, and narratives carried by dominant voices […] engages with a polysemic object to which, through a form of inspired invention initially rooted in research, she restores a compelling plastic dimension — one that inspires as much as it seeks to resonate further.”

— Lana Dali, Slash Paris, 2026 full article

“Her distinct works interweave to form complex narrative structures, taking shape in immersive spatial arrangements — configurations that are at once sensory and discursive, in which the ordering of elements produces an aesthetic and reflective experience.”

— Fabienne Bideaud, art Critic and curator, 2026 exhibition text

“Margarita Wenzel was born in East Germany and raised in Iran. In her artistic practice, she explores the subjectivity of knowledge, ruptures in historical narratives, and the complex nature of human perception. She engages in exploratory research without confining herself to a particular medium, creating distinct works that are interconnected to build multi-level narrative structures in complex spatial installations.”

— Fondation Fiminco, 2025 residence presentation

“Throughout her career, Wenzel’s spatial installations have taken many forms, embodying the exploratory research at the heart of her practice. By creating works that are site-specific in the deepest sense of the word, the projects are never wedded to one medium, but present considerate visual responses to individual contexts.”
