Franziska von Stenglin is an artist and a film maker. She was born in Munich and grew up in the Czech Republic, Senegal, India, and Germany. Her work spans photography, film, and installation, often weaving elements of her own biography with local myths and the personal histories of those she encounters during her travels and residencies. Archives play a central role in her practice, which is deeply humanistic and concerned with memory and lived human experience shared across cultures and borders. She lives and works in Berlin.
