Veneta Androva (*1985, Sofia) is a visual artist, living and working between Berlin and Sofia. Her practice centers on moving image and is developed through research-based artistic approaches that combine documentary inquiry with speculative narrative forms. Working across CGI-based moving image, single- and multi-channel video, and spatial formats, she examines how contemporary realities are shaped by technological systems, mediated information, and structures of power. Across her projects, documentary material and fiction intersect through layered visual languages drawing on archival traces, online sources, CGI, painting, and algorithmic processes, including machine-learning models. Her work explores how knowledge is produced, circulated, and legitimized within technologically mediated environments, and how automated systems shape collective imaginaries and political agency.

Androva studied Fine Arts at the Weißensee Academy of Art Berlin, as well as Philosophy and Art History at Humboldt University in Berlin, and completed a study period in moving image at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem. Her films have been shown internationally in festival and exhibition contexts including Ars Electronica, DOK Leipzig, EMAF – European Media Art Festival, Goethe-Institut, and FILE São Paulo. Her works have received several awards, including distinctions at Prix Ars Electronica and Filmfest Dresden, and From My Desert was nominated for the German Short Film Award. Recent and upcoming presentations include Visions du Réel and the Bulgarian Pavilion of the Venice Biennale in 2026.
