Howdy!

My name is Kiera Pitts, and I’m a painter and textile artist that found my way from Colorado to Berlin with a few stops in between. Since moving to Berlin three years ago I’ve participated in artist residencies in Berlin, documenta15, and Detroit, Michigan, where I’ve focused on painting, natural dyeing, and traditional textile practices.

My love for art in all forms has always been strong, as I believe that the underlying magic of creation is making something that has beauty and purpose.

Alongside my art practice I run Mendifesto, a clothing repair/up-cycling business that offers a range of services from hole repair to gender-affirming alterations.

At its core, my work—no matter the medium—is about preserving, repurposing, and creating with intention. Mending is a political act, art can be a form of resistance, and I hope to use my skills to build something that lasts.
