Tatiana Echeverri Fernandez is a Berlin-based artist whose work traverses the fault lines of societal structures, material memory, and cultural identity. Born in Costa Rica to Colombian parents and raised between Medellín, Rotterdam, and the Ruhr area, her practice is shaped by a life lived across continents and the ongoing tension between Colombian heritage and German reality
STUDIO
Her sculptures, installations, and performances probe the memory and origin of materials, drawing out their latent histories and linking them to the physical and social realities of industrial production, technological advancement, and resource extraction.
Ritualistic, archaic gestures intersect
with serially produced industrial
objects, evoking the uncanny fragility
that underlies even the most advanced systems.
Her work thrives on collisions:
between body and object, function and dysfunction, material and space.
Positioned within the discourses of material culture and memory as well as postindustrial and postcolonial conditions, Echeverri Fernandez reworks obsolete objects, historical forms, and forgotten rituals to propose alternative structures-transformations that unsettle ideological inheritances and reorder the possibilities of past, present, and future.
These confrontations generate new
states of abstraction, opening a
charged field where meaning is both
destabilized and reconfigured.
She studied at the Kunsthochschule Kassel under Urs
Lüthi, continued at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf as a
master student of Rosemarie Trockel, and completed her MFA at the Royal College of Art in London. She has since taught at university level, holding positions at RCA London, Goldsmiths, Krabbesholm in Denmark, HfBK Dresden, and the UdK Berlin.
Alongside her artistic practice, she
founded Changing Room, a Berlin based project space and research platform situated at the intersection
of performance, sound, and collective
inquiry. and critical research
Through symposia, workshops, and
transdisciplinary collaborations, it fosters experimental forms of knowledge production, community engagement, bridging artistic practice
Tatiana Echeverri Fernandez work has been exhibited internationally at renowned institutions such as the Guggenheim Museum, New York; MOCA Tucson; Shedhalle. Zurich; Triangle France, Marseille; and the Barbican, London. Her works are represented in numerous private and public collections wordwide. She has received multiple awards and grants throughout her career, most recently the grant for artistic research from Kunstfonds Bonn for 2025
