Lars Preisser b. 1984 in Lindau (Lake Constance), Germany is a multidisciplinary artist working in the disciplines of weaving, drawing and moving image. His projects often involve many years of making and research and result in concise formations of detailed drawings, machines, textiles and other mediums. These could be described as surreal re-configurations that relate current issues like gentrification, global warming or post-colonial themes, hidden histories, lived experiences or industrial materials and machines that he is connected to through his own family and industrial heritage. Lars Preisser grew up in Berlin (Germany) and holds degrees in textile art (Bachelor of Visual Arts) from Otago Polytechnic School of Art Dunedin, Aotearoa/ New Zealand and media art/ expanded cinema ( Diplom/ MA equivalent) at HGB Leipzig (Germany). His work has been exhibited internationally at Blue Oyster Gallery Dunedin, Objectspace Auckland, Bauhaus Dessau, nGbK Berlin, Contextile 2022 textile art biennial among others. He currently works and lives in Berlin.
