Isa Rosenberger lives and works as a visual artist in Vienna, Austria.

Her installations focus on alternative readings of history (and the present), uncovering silent, suppressed, lost, or forgotten narratives. In her projects, Rosenberger—often from an intersectional feminist perspective—reflects on personal stories and discourses that migrate across considerable geographical distances and spans of time. In her practice, the documentary form undergoes multi-perspectival consolidation through a combination of archival material, mise-en-scène, performative (re)enactment, and dialogical formatting in the sense of oral history.

Her artistic and artistic-research projects have been shown in numerous exhibitions.
