su trabajo cuestiona los modos en que los cuerpos son representados en los medios de comunicación y redes sociales, analizando cómo estas imágenes modelan percepciones, condicionan lecturas y perpetúan estereotipos o mitos. en este sentido, la fotografía y el video se convierten en herramientas para interrumpir discursos visuales normativos y construir nuevos relatos que desafíen lo hegemónico.
a través de una búsqueda constante de otras formas de mirar y narrar, su práctica se inscribe en un territorio de resistencia y reconfiguración, donde imagen y cuerpo dialogan para generar espacios de comunicación más inclusivos. Su obra indaga en los vínculos entre memoria, nostalgia, poder y opresión, proponiendo narrativas visuales que expandan los límites de lo representable.

karin dilge’s artistic practice operates at the intersection of body, image, and representation. through video and analog & digital photography she explores how the body functions as a site of historical, social, and political inscription. her research focuses on the relationship between body, identity, territory, and history, guided by the premise: “if the body is the perpetrator of history, history becomes flesh in the body” (nunes, 2021). from this perspective, the body is not merely a recipient of experiences but an active agent that narrates and transforms realities, much like the camera itself, which serves as both witness and constructor of truth.
her work questions how bodies are represented in the media and on social platforms, analyzing how these visual narratives shape perceptions, dictate readings, and perpetuate stereotypes. in this sense, photography and video become tools to disrupt normative visual discourses and construct new narratives that challenge hegemonic structures.
through a continuous search for alternative ways of seeing and narrating, her practice inhabits a space of resistance and reconfiguration, where image and body engage in dialogue to create more inclusive modes of communication. her work examines the ties between memory, nostalgia, power, and oppression, proposing visual narratives that expand the limits of representation.
