Born in Haarlem, 1969, Lara Schnitger lives and works in both Los Angeles and Amsterdam.
Working mainly, though not exclusively, with textiles, Schnitger is best known for her large-scale sculptures created from knitted and sewn fabrics.
She uses these chosen materials to create unexpected, highly idiosyncratic forms often combined with appliqued texts.
Totemic in structure and scale with an absurdist edge, Schnitger’s work literally brings new dimensions to the use of domestic fabrics.
