KAYA (Kerstin Brätsch and Debo Eilers)

KAYA is a collaborative project, combining the independent practices of painter Kerstin Bratsch (*1969, Hamburg, Germany) and sculptor Debo Eilers (*1974, Texas, USA), both living and working in New York. The project refers to Kaya Serene, a young Texan who serves the artists as a focal and departure point for numerous exhibitions, performances, interventions, events, and publications. KAYA’s work has been shown around the world within exhibitions at Fridericianum in Kassel, MWoods in Beijing, Museum Brandhorst in Munich, KUB Kunsthaus Bregenz, Deborah Schamoni in Munich, Galerie Meyer Kainer in Vienna, and 47 Canal in New York, among others, and the works were included in the recent Whitney Biennial 2017, New York. In May 2018 KAYA will have a solo exhibition at the Fondazione Memmo in Rome.
