Jana Winderen is an artist who currently lives and works in Norway.

Jana's practice pays particular attention to audio environments and to creatures which are hard for humans to access, both physically and aurally – deep under water, inside ice or in frequency ranges inaudible to the human ear.

Her activities include site-specific and spatial audio installations and concerts, which have been exhibited and performed internationally in major institutions and public spaces. Recent work includes “The Art of Listening: Under Water” for Audemars Piguet at Art Basel, Miami; “Rising Tide” at Kunstnernes Hus in Oslo; “Listening with Carp” for Now is the Time in Wuzhen, China; “Through the Bones” for the Thailand Biennale in Krabi; “Bára” for TBA21_Academy; “Spring Bloom” in the Marginal Ice Zone for Sonic Acts; and “Ultrafield” for MoMA, New York.

In 2011, she won the Golden Nica at Ars Electronica for Digital Musics & Sound Art. She releases her audiovisual work on Touch (UK).
