Anna-Sophie Berger uses a variety of media in her artworks including sculpture,collage and film. Berger is influenced by structuralism and she aims to reveal the multifunctionality of ordinary items, both aesthetically and their wider cultural significance. In her work, she often incorporates materials such as textiles, printed matter, food and everyday objects such as burlap, concrete, cardboard, and thread. Through her use of juxtaposition and the reappropriation of everyday objects, Berger's work explores themes of destruction, domination, and precarity in modern society.
