Frenzi Rigling studied at the School of Design in Zurich.
As an expression of her artistic intention, Frenzi Rigling shows much more than the formal aesthetics of the object. Using everyday objects and found objects from nature, she makes visible what remains hidden on the outside. They are staged into installations and alienated to form new objects, whereby her craftsmanship springs from the activities of work in her private environment. Her sources of inspiration are films, literature and art.
In her artistic feminist practice, she is interested not only in socio-political issues but also in the connection between chance and myth and the dimension of temporality. One of her favorite quotes by American writer Richard Ford is, "I throw things in the air and then I look where they land."
Her works are represented in all important public collections in Austria.
