Biography
Judas Companion (b. 1984, Germany) is a German artist whose practice explores themes of deconstruction, preservation and annihilation of the self. Her works explore what constitutes the self in modern times, commenting on the evolution emphasising the predictable failure of this endeavour. The recent metamorphosis of her works explores semi-functional exoskeletons to enact the human whilst going through processes of transformations. Judas lives and works in London, UK.
