Lucía Reissig (b. 1994) is an Argentinian-Guatemalan artist based in New York City. Her work explores the memory of the body and objects through care, domestic labor, informal economies, and food politics. She moves between sculpture, installation, performative rituals, and photography—blending politics, food, and affect while honoring domestic wisdom and the cultural legacy of diasporic cooking.
Reissig began her artistic training in DIY and artist-run spaces before joining the Programa de Artistas at Universidad Torcuato Di Tella (2017–18) and Escuela Incierta at Lugar a Dudas in Colombia (2018). She earned her MFA in Sculpture from Bard College in 2024.
Alongside her solo work, she has participated in collaborative and self-organized projects centered on feminist archival practices, community kitchens, mobile queer food, and the politics of cleaning and care. These experiences inform her ongoing interest in the porous boundaries between the personal and political, the emotional and material.
Her solo exhibitions include 287.5 kilos (Móvil, 2023), Todo estaba sucio (duo show at Museo Municipal de Arte Moderno de Mendoza, 2022), and El trabajo invisible (Selvanegra, 2018). She has shown in group exhibitions at BienalSur, Premio Braque at MUNTREF, MALBA, Centro Cultural Kirchner, Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires, Archipelago-mendes wood DM in Germantown, among others.
In 2021, she published Sticky Floors (Pisos pegajosos) with Chilean press HambreHambreHambre. She received the Kenneth Kemble Young Artist Grant (2018), the Premio en Obra at arteba (2019), and was a resident fellow at Mass MoCA Studios in 2025.
Lucia will present a new solo exhibition at Mimo Mimo Mimo, New York, in September 2025.
