“Carla Romero is an example of how an immigrant lives making and exhibiting art in Germany. Romero’s first exhibition in Germany took place in 2014 at the Textil Art Berlin fair, where space had been created to exhibit textile art alongside the regular sales operation . Here Romero’s artwork contributed to the break with the cliché of the good housemother fetching the white cube and thus creating new spaces of art experience, as well as using materials that transcend genres for their visual works, she creates transitory moments that make curious about their future development. Admirable is the perseverance with which she goes her way and breaks (up) given and established conditions almost in passing.”
