David Bergé lives in Athens and Brussels and practices photography through the lens of the body. His work – taking the form of silent Walk Pieces, durational photo-installations, performances and publications – reveals and unfolds the layers and complexities of urban infrastructure. Recent presentations have taken place at Extra City, Antwerp; State Museum of Contemporary Art, Thessaloniki; and the Archiv der Avantgarden, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden (SKD). www.davidberge.be
