Constanza Camila Kramer Garfias
b. Viña del Mar, Chile, 1987 Lives and works in Munich, Germany
Constanza Camila Kramer Garfias is a Chilean, Munich-based artist whose critical examination of textiles as a medium and subject reflects her cultural roots and personal resonance with theories of post-colonialism. Stemming from a theoretical, structural, and historical engagement with looms, her approach is characterized by exhausting their algorithms, with deconstruction as her point of departure.
Kramer Garfias will have her first solo exhibition with the gallery in January 2025. She has participated in institutional exhibitions at the American Tapestry Alliance at The Richard Peeler Art Center/DePauw University (Greencastle, IN, USA); Galerie der Künstler*innen (Munich, Germany); and in February 2025, Garfias will be included in a group exhibition at the Museum für Gestaltung (Zürich, Switzerland).
In 2023 she was profiled in the Art and America New Talent Issue, and has also been featured in Flair, Cosmopolitan Germany, Artsy, and more.
