Theresa Weber grew up in Düsseldorf, Germany and graduated at the Düsseldorf Kunstakademie in 2021, after studying in the classes of Ellen Gallagher and Katharina Grosse. She is now based in London and studying her postgraduate Master in sculpture at the Royal College of Art.
Her first institutional solo-shows and several group shows took place in Germany, Slovakia and Italy in 2021, in addition to several collective projects and group shows in Belgium, Germany and the UK in 2022.
