Joana Schneider, born in Munich and now based in Amsterdam after studying Textile Design at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, has seen her work recognized internationally in exhibitions and art fairs such as PULSE Art Week Miami, Enter Art Fair Copenhagen, Masterly Milan, Sainte Anne Gallery Paris, and PAN Amsterdam. She continues to build an artistic universe in which reclaimed materials, manual processes, and speculative imagination intertwine in increasingly dense and layered ways. From the early years of her training, Schneider has chosen ropes, nets, and recycled industrial yarns as the core materials of her practice, drawn to their rough physicality, vitality, and unexpected expressive possibilities. This choice does not stem from a desire to convey a moral message, but from an intrinsic necessity in her method. Schneider works exclusively with existing and residual materials, particularly from the maritime sector, seeing limitation as a creative engine. A constraint that opens up worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This approach is evident in Pluis<\/em>, the work that in 2018 earned her the Keep an Eye Textile & Fashion Award and marked the beginning of direct collaboration with Dutch net-making artisans. The dialogue with these materials, with the hands that craft them, and with the environmental implications of their presence in the marine landscape, shaped a practice whose focus is less on sustainability than on the interaction, often complex and ambiguous, between humans and nature. This relationship, a continual negotiation of forces, intentions, and unforeseen consequences, has become the guiding principle throughout her work. It spans from large immersive installations inspired by the landscapes of the North Sea to her most recent chromatic and material experiments, always approached with the same sense of depth and discovery.
