BIO
Laetitia Hildebrand

Born in 1982 (Suresnes- Fr.), lives and works in Berlin.

Laeti is a graduate of the art school ENSAD of Paris in visual arts, June 2007. After graduating she became a freelance illustrator and graphic designer. In September 2009, Laetitia moved her workshop to Berlin, her father’s birthplace, flourishing and developing her artistic styles. Her art works have been exhibited in several galleries and cafes of Berlin. She travels and presents her works to many events throughout Germany, France and Italy. Since 2014 she grew her label “Laeti-Berlin”. She screenprints handmade her illustrations on organic- and fairtrade-textiles in her Berlin studio. In 2020, she began to observe through painting, the effect of stillness with meditative, even surrealist cityscapes.
Since 2021 she moved to another studio in Berlin-Wedding (“Fabrik 23”) to devote herself to painting. Laeti’s works reflect rhythm and movement. They consider the mobility, interactivity and flow of communication that characterize our society today. Here she presents her Berlin works made from spontaneous and sketched lines. The line is very important to her as an artist, as the energy of the mind and body is transferred to the drawing. She also uses different spaces and materials to express herself, such as spray paint, or acrylic.
Laeti is an urbansketcher since 21 years and she teaches Urban Sketches in many workshops.
She is also a mural artist for some jams (wall paintings) in Berlin or in Paris.
