Wera Bet was born in Bydgoszcz, Poland and lives and works in Berlin and Bydgoszcz. In her work, she examines how (mis)information spreads and sprouts through concealed networks of knowledge. Her focus draws on sociological and aesthetic strategies that question the legitimacy of concepts that define social norms and normativity, leading to a criticism of these patterns as conservative, authoritative, exclusionary. She is interested, from a sociological point of view, in how human desires are shaped and learned rather than emerging through necessity and in the characteristics which determine individuality. She endows her paintings with an intensity that can be compared to the operation of a love song. Her love song puts the viewer in a special state of anticipation and vulnerability.
