Susanne Sachsse is an artist and actress who was born and raised in East Germany, an experience that informs her artistic and political critique of nationalism and social norms. Her work has developed along three main axes: 1) as a solo artist; 2) as co-founder and fearless leader of the Berlin-based art collective CHEAP; and 3) in collaboration with select artists working in visual arts, film, dance, music, and performance. She had her first solo exhibition at Participant Inc (NYC, 2021) and has presented sound, video and object installations at Kestner Gesellschaft (Hanover, 2023), and Künstlerhaus Bethanien (Berlin, 2022). Her exhibition, Choose Mutation, with CHEAP, was presented at Accelerator (Stockholm, 2024) and Gropius Bau (Berlin, 2025) and will be at PS1 MoMA (NYC, 2025-26).
