Lina Weisener

Lina joined n-ost's communications team in 2024, bringing interdisciplinary expertise in visual communication, cultural anthropology, and Eastern European studies. With experience spanning media art, social media strategy, and museum curation, she brings a unique perspective on cross-cultural storytelling. Currently completing her studies at the University of Hamburg, Lina has expanded her expertise through international programs in Copenhagen, Tallinn, and Gdansk. Lina focuses on challenging visual representations, particularly in crisis contexts. Through collaboration with Ukrainian amateur photographers, involvement in exhibitions and publications, she explores how photography can preserve collective memory and a nuanced human experience while avoiding exploitative narratives. Currently pursuing photo editing at Ostkreuz Schule für Fotografie, she continues developing her skills in responsible visual communication.
