Susanne Kriemann (b. 1972, Germany) lives and works in Berlin. She is an artist, a professor for Code & Image at the University of Arts and Design Karlsruhe, and a lecturer at NYU Berlin. Together with Aleksander Komarov she has co-organised the artist initiative ABA AiR Berlin Alexanderplatz since 2010. With an expanded concept of the photographic document, Kriemann explores landscapes as analogue ‘recording systems’ for human-caused processes.

Ecology is prevalent in both her subject matter and her working methods. An intrinsic feature of her work is the application of the researched material in prints and exhibitions. This approach is interwoven with archaeological and geological research, allowing the (distant) past to be layered with the shared present and a speculative future. Matter, whether organic or industrially produced—from (micro)plastics to radioactive fission products—incorporates this broader perspective of agency. For some years now, Kriemann has been exploring the idea of collaborating with entities or aspects of nature that are not traditionally considered human. Within her work she raises hopeful questions in the face of climate change and technological disruption.

Kriemann’s work has been exhibited at the CCA Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts, San Francisco; Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna; the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam; Kunsthalle Winterthur, Switzerland; C/O Berlin; and MK&G, Hamburg, among many others. She participated in the 2nd Diriyah Biennale, Riyadh; the 11th Shanghai Biennale; the 10th and 11th Gothenburg International Biennials; the 2nd Karachi Biennale; the 5th Moscow Biennale; and the 5th Berlin Biennale. She participated in various artist residencies, including the NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore and Goethe-Institut Sri Lanka. Since 1998 she has co-authored seventeen artist’s books.
