Sonja Fäh lives and works near Zurich, Switzerland.

After working as a kindergarten teacher, she studied at the Zurich University of the Arts.

She then spent three years in Mexico City, where she continued making art. Back in Switzerland, she now teaches art to children and continues her education at the Wetzikon Art School.

Her artwork is two dimensional or three dimensional or installation or performative, depending on the question that’s being investigated. She is interested in experimenting with material and technology in such a way that their peculiarities or characters of the materials reveal themselves.

Sonja finds her passion in creating with her own hands, inventing, developing, designing and constantly pushing boundaries.

What fascinates Sonja about creating art is precise perception, critical questioning and the desire to continually rediscover the world.
