MUC Artists

Onboarding room

Mara Weyel is a versatile graphic designer and artist from Augsburg. Her creative approach goes far beyond design alone: through the careful selection of colors, shapes, images, illustrations, and typefaces, she tells compelling visual stories. Her broad range of expertise includes typography, corporate identity development, web design, and animation. Together with the graphic design agency KW NEUN, she won numerous prestigious awards, including the TDC Type Directors Club Award, European Design Awards, Red Dot Design Award, iF Communication Design Award, and the award for the 100 best posters. At the WOW Museum, the onboarding room she designed guides visitors through their first steps in the museum.

Inversion

The artist duo Pfeifer & Kreutzer, consisting of Anne Pfeifer and Bernhard Kreutzer, lives and works in Munich and Reichelsheim in the Odenwald. Their work focuses on kinetic art in the form of moving objects, sound installations, and video works. They work with a variety of materials, such as acrylic glass, faux fur, wood, and metal. Their works mostly consist of geometric, minimalist forms in bold colors. The duo has already been honored with numerous awards and grants, including a three-month artist residency in Gwangju, South Korea. One of their works, Inversion, can be admired at the WOW Museum in Munich.

Frozen

Tobias Ziegler lives and works in Berlin. In his artistic practice, he focuses on how the perception of physical space is altered by the interplay of new media such as light. The multimodal installations that emerge from this approach challenge viewers to explore the limits of their perception. This is also the case with the space he curated, Frozen, at the WOW Museum in Munich. With his award-winning works, he has participated in numerous international exhibitions in Montreal, Leipzig, Weimar, and Karlsruhe, as well as at the Luminale in Frankfurt am Main in 2020.

Wonder Tunnel

Carnovsky is an art and design duo based in Milan, consisting of Francesco Rugi and Silvia Quintanilla. The duo is known for its use of a unique technique, which they introduced in 2010 with their RGB wallpaper. This wallpaper displays different images under varying lighting conditions by interacting with light colors. Carnovsky’s ongoing project using RGB technology explores the possibilities of interaction between printed colors and light colors, resulting in unexpected and bewildering images. Their work is exhibited internationally, including in Berlin, Paris, London, and Melbourne. One of their works, the Wonder Tunnel, is also on display at the WOW Museum in Munich.

Perpetual

Studio Zahel brings together the perspectives of Esther and Peter Zahel. Esther Zahel explores the possibilities of how painting, as a classical medium, can be transferred from the two-dimensional surface into three-dimensional space. Her goal is to create an immersive experience. Peter Zahel, on the other hand, focuses on architectural photography, examining materiality, ergonomics, and form. One of his areas of focus is also always the reflection on social, aesthetic, and metaphysical connections. Together, they designed the stairwell of the WOW Museum. The wall painting was created by Esther Zahel.

Morph

Nadja Lola Crosina Caballero is a Swiss-Mexican artist known for her striking set designs and the creation of magical worlds. Lola stages people, objects, and spaces in theatrical settings that transport viewers into another reality. Her multicultural background lends her work energy and vibrancy. Lola’s works are featured at the WOW Museum in Zurich, the WOW Museum in Munich, and the NoNation Gallery in Chicago. As a set designer, she has worked for brands such as Zalando and Alnatura, and her photographs have been published in Faces and Kaltblut magazines. 

Vector

Felix Rodewaldt lives and works in Munich. Whether creating tape art or wall paintings, Rodewaldt views the interior and exterior architecture of the 21st century as his very own canvas. Inspired by street art techniques, he transforms walls and surfaces in public spaces. Tape art—art created using adhesive tape—is a central focus of his artistic practice. Through numerous commissioned works, he has already left a visible mark in various cities, such as Munich, Berlin, Chemnitz, and Vienna, as well as at the WOW Museum in Munich, where he designed the Vector room. He has also participated in international exhibitions in Tokyo, New York, and Odessa.
