Corrina Goutos
(US / Germany, 1991)
Residence Artist in 2025.
Corrina Goutos (1991 New York State) is an artist working in jewellery, objects, and installation currently based in Hamburg, Germany. Having coined the term “Anthrosmithing” to describe her interdisciplinary practice- Corrina renounces the concept of a “raw material”, instead considering that when a craftsperson imprints themselves on a material, they are but one of many agents constantly reshaping it. Corrina’s future artifacts tell a story of mankind, from achievements to decadence. Precise pre-industrial handicraft is applied to post-consumer detritus, with the same intention a smith would give a rare resource of Earth. With radical consideration of the political ecology of non-human and human agents,
Corrina received her BFA in Jewelry and Objects from the Savannah College of Art and Design in 2013 and has actively participated in international craft exhibitions, such as Munich Jewelry Week, in the decade since. She has twice been honored as an AJF Young Artist Award Finalist and is the recipient of several distinctions in sustainable fashion. She is increasingly recognized for her large format installations, and with them, her expansive and fluid definition of contemporary jewelry and object-smithing.
