Wendelien van Oldenborgh develops works, whereby the cinematic format is used as a methodology for production and as the basic language for various forms of presentation. She often uses the format of a public film shoot, collaborating with participants in different scenarios, to co-produce a script and orientate the work towards its final outcome. With these works, which look at the structures that form and hinder us, she participated in various large biennials, and in smaller dedicated shows. Recent presentations include Form Left to Night (2015), solo at The Showroom London, Beauty and the Right to the Ugly (2014) at the Berlinale Forum Expanded 2015, Collective Gallery Edinburgh 2015 and in van Abbemuseum, in 'Confessions of the Imperfect' 2014; La Javanaise at CAPC Bordeaux 2015, the 12th Biennial of Cuenca (EC) (2014); Après la reprise, la prise in 'Blue Times', Kunsthalle Wien 2014 and 'Art Turning Left', Tate Liverpool 2013; Cinema Bete & Deise in 'Dear Art' by What How and for Whom, Calvert 22, London 2013; Supposing I love you.
