Berenike Corcuera is a German-Peruvian visual artist using textiles and handcraft techniques of embroidery and appliqué to create her artworks. She explores questions of belonging, spiritual inheritance and resistance and the politics of material. Her large-scale textile works function as meditations on land, identity and transgenerational memory. She draws from cosmologies of her Andean-Amazonian roots and her third culture upbringing as well as decolonial practices. Through fiber, she engages with material as both a sacred medium and a political tool. Berenike has exhibited her work in solo and group exhibitions in Copenhagen, Stockholm, Brussels and New York City.
