In the artist's words:

Sonya Schönberger is a Berlin-based artist whose practice deals with biographical ruptures against the backdrop of political or social upheaval. The source of her artistic exploration are the people themselves, who talk about them in biographical interviews. This has led to the creation of several archives, but her work also incorporates existing archives, some of which have already been found. In 2018, she created the "Berliner Zimmer", a long-term video archive based on the stories of people in Berlin.
