Erica van Loon is a multidisciplinary artist based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Through image, language, and sound, her work explores interconnections between human and non-human bodies and their environments, approaching the boundaries between the internal and external as porous.

She catches mountains with her bare hands, pulls you onto a sandy dance floor, peels the sticky membranes that envelop your brain, pokes a finger into the valley between your hemispheres and tells you how to position your behind if you ever find yourself falling out of a high tree.

Van Loon graduated in Architectural Design at the ArtEZ University of the Arts and in Fine Arts at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam and completed a two-year postgraduate program at De Ateliers in Amsterdam.

She regularly works abroad as artist in residence and exhibits internationally, among others at Klingt Gut, Hamburg (DE), Fondazione Baruchello, Rome (IT), Banff Center for the Arts (CA), NAIRS contemporary art centre (CH) I-Park Foundation (USA), LABVERDE Arts Immersion Program in the Amazon (BR), ARCUS Project, Moriya (JP), Teatro di Palazzo Grassi, Venice (IT) and P///AKT, Amsterdam, Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and Kunsthuis Syb (NL).

For her current project she is supported by Mondriaan Fonds, Cultuurfonds, Amsterdams Fonds voor de Kunsten.
