Cartemisia is a multidisciplinary artist and cultural producer based in Malmö, Sweden, originally from Población Recabarren in Santiago de Chile.
Rooted in a background of grassroots activism and ongoing studies in Social Science, her practice explores the social, political, and emotional terrains that shape collective and individual experience.
Working across painting, murals, sculpture, text, performance, and movement, Cartemisia investigates themes such as migration, exile, intergenerational trauma, gendered violence, community care, and resilience.
Her work is informed by lived experience as well as the narratives of others, weaving personal memory with wider socio-political realities. Cartemisia's artistic language is deeply influenced by feminist, queer, and decolonial frameworks, and often emerges through collaborative processes within local communities.
Cartemisia's projects have spanned public art, curatorial work, community-centered events, and interdisciplinary performance, reflecting her commitment to accessibility and cultural inclusion.
As an artist, Cartemisia seeks to create spaces—both physical and conceptual—where complexity can be held, questioned, and transformed. She welcomes collaborations that align with values of justice, imagination, and collective empowerment.
