Work

Piene is known widely for her delicate and penetrating drawings, which are typically anchored in the body. Her video and sculpture utilize the greater sensory impact of noise, time, shadow, and heavy materials to dig visibly into the more subterranean levels of experience.[4] In her sculptures, Piene has worked primarily with iron, steel, porcelain, and installation.[5] Her work has made various and diverse associations with prisoners, love letters, failure, history and heroic transformation.[6][7]

In 2016, Piene performed her work Familienaufstellung in Vienna, Austria. Translated as “Family Constellation,” Familienaufstellung was developed in the 1990s as a form of therapy by German psychotherapist Bert Hellingerd. Piene invited artists, actors, and friends to play the parts of her real family members, including the artist Matthew Barney as her brother, and actress Petra Morse of the Burgtheater in Vienna as her mother.[8] Piene's earlier performance To Serve was a collaborative dialogue with a United States Special Operations Commander in New York, tandem to her three-part video series which worked directly with cameras strapped to the heads of soldiers stationed in Afghanistan.[9]
