Things growing in the dark
Mixed-Media Installation, 2013

CHRISTA FÜLBIER (born 1976 in Mainz, DE)
lives and works as a visual artist in Berlin since 2006. She studied fine arts at the Staatlichen Akademie der Bildenden Künste Karlsruhe and graduated with an MA in 2003. In addition to a continuous exhibition practice in solo and group exhibitions, primarily in the independent art scene, she is co-founder of HUJ:C (since 2017); active as project coordinator , among others, for collaborations with the Martin Roth Initiative (2021–2025); cultural worker/freelancer for the Institute for Foreign Cultural Relations ifa, Department of Art and Touring Exhibitions (since 2017); member of the board of Lockkunst e.V. (Trägerverein zur Förderung von Kunst und Kultur) (2021-2026).

My artistic work explores traces of the body, time, and memory at the intersection of appearance and disappearance. Fragile objects, often made from organic materials, stand alongside large-scale installations—within an aesthetic of minimalism and austerity that oscillates between lightness and heaviness, stillness and movement, emptiness and density.
