Larissa Fassler
Larissa Fassler was born in 1975 in Vancouver (CA). She lives and works in Berlin.
Although Larissa Fassler’s work has an evident relationship with architecture, it is essentially built on a set of readings and impressions experienced by the artist, which she synthesizes into large graphic compositions, models or sculptures.
