Maria Petschnig
Maria Petschnig is an Austrian born filmmaker, producer, writer and
artist based in Brooklyn, NY.
Beautiful and Neat Room is inspired by her own experiences of cohabitating with
other people, having shared her living space with more than 60 roommates over
the course of 22 years. She has told The New York Times that sharing her
apartment was “a way to survive as an artist in New York City”.
She has made twenty-plus experimental films and a feature documentary,
Uncomfortably Comfortable, which earned acclaim at the 2021 Duisburger Film
Woche, where it won the ARTE documentary award.
"Her strange films suggest she’s the art world’s Franz Kafka."
(New York magazine)
Petschnig is a recipient of the ADA award, a Rema Hort Mann Foundation Artist
Community Engagement Grant, and a film grant by Innovativer Film, Ministry of
Arts & Culture, Austria.
