Mirja Busch is an interdisciplinary artist from Berlin. She studied fine arts at the Braunschweig University of Art and at the Universidad de Chile in Chile. The examination of (urban) landscape as a social and artistic construct plays a central role in her work.

For over ten years, Mirja has been exploring the ontology of puddles and experimenting with various forms of archiving them - whether as a photographic collection, in liquid form, through ethnographic observations, walks or language - bringing this often overlooked phenomenon into focus in order to open up new, non-human perspectives on the city and the subject of water.

Her work has been funded by the Stiftung Kunstfonds (2023, 2022, 2020, 2015), the Berlin Senate (2016), Hans and Charlotte Krull Stiftung (2014), Goldrausch Programm Berlin (2011) and DAAD (2008), among others.
