Marei Loellmann`s practice explores land as a time-being, working with textiles, sculpture, and installation to engage with material histories and non-linear temporalities. Drawing on natural elements from post-industrial landscapes—soil, sediments, and ash—her works unfold as porous archives, where materials act as agents of memory, carrying traces of slow violence and environmental transformation, while foregrounding embodied forms of knowledge.

Her work has been presented — solo and collaboratively — in diverse contexts, including Galerie Bernau, Brücke Museum, Kunstraum Kreuzberg, Copenhagen Opera Festival, Galerie im Körnerpark, Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW), Galerie Gosserez, and the Festival of Future Nows at Neue Nationalgalerie. She has received numerous fellowships and grants, artist-in-residence fellowships at the MuseumsQuartier Vienna (2026), the Künstler*dorf Schöppingen Foundation (2024), the Berlin Senate Research Grant (2024), the Neustart Kultur grant by Stiftung Kunstfonds (2022/23), and the Elsa‑Neumann Fellowship (2014). Marei studied at the Weißensee Academy of Art Berlin in Germany and the Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam in the Netherlands.
