Zonenkinder Collective

The artist duo CAROLÏN LØVE & PHILIPP are the founders of the ZONENKINDER collective. Since 2003, they have developed an individual style rooted in urban art, figurative graffiti and nature-based storytelling. Influenced by hip-hop graffiti, punk, anime, pop art and the Berlin techno scene as well as academic studies in sociology, anthropology and ethnology, their work combines art, theory and practice, subculture and institution. The Hamburg-based duo create murals, studio works and site-specific installations. Their work explores themes such as the complex relationships between nature, humans and consumer culture and the relationships between humans and animals. Their award-winning Tree Project combines urban art, land art and environmental themes. They recently launched theWALL+, a platform for contemporary mural painting and interdisciplinary cultural engagement in public spaces. Their work has been exhibited internationally, including at MIAM in Sète, the Gogol Festival in Kiev and projects in China. In addition to exhibitions, ZONENKINDER offer workshops, lectures and performances that promote immersive collective experiences, artistic exchange and critical reflection.
