Gabi Schillig studied Architecture in Coburg and completed her postgraduate studies in Conceptual Design at the Städelschule – Staatliche Hochschule für Bildende Künste Frankfurt am Main before founding her ‘Studio for Dialogical Spaces’ in Berlin in 2008. 

She has exhibited internationally and received several fellowships and prizes, amongst others: Akademie Schloss Solitude Stuttgart (2007 -2008), Van Alen Institute New York (2009), Nordic Artists´ Centre Dale (2010), Weissenhof Architekturförderpreis (2010), KHOJ International Artists´ Association Neu-Delhi (2011), Largo das Artes Rio de Janeiro (2015) and Stiftung Bauhaus Dessau (2016). During summer 2018 and 2019 she was an artist-in-residence at Nida Art Colony in Lithuania.

From 2012 to 2018 she was teaching as Professor for Spatial Design at the Düsseldorf University of Applied Sciences – Peter Behrens School of Arts at the Faculty of Design. Since 2005 she is teaching and lecturing in many transdisciplinary contexts and has exhibited internationally. From 2015 to 2018 she was the vice chairwoman of the Institute for Research in Applied Arts (IRAA) at the Peter Behrens School of Arts Düsseldorf.

In April 2018 she was appointed as Professor for Spatial Design and Exhibition Design at the Berlin University of the Arts at the Institute for Transmedia Design / Visual Communication.

In her artistic practice and teaching Gabi Schillig investigates contemporary and future questions of spatial design such as the relationship between space and body, the evolution of spatial systems, the potentials of materiality and the experimental use of analogue and digital design methodologies. Her conceptual approach results in multi-sensorial, dialogical structures and spaces of communication on multiple scales and in different contexts within spaces, cities and landscapes that lead to the emergence of an experimental spatiality that is based on social and physical processes and connect materiality and interaction in an immediate way
