Line Krom

Line Krom is a German artist and cultural anthropologist working at the intersection of ecology, material culture, and atmospheric science. Her practice examines dust as both matter and method – an investigative lens into environmental transformation, cultural memory, and infrastructures shaping human–planet relations. Combining drawing, photography, field sampling, and collaborative research, she engages with archives, scientists, and public institutions. Her project Wiesbadener Stäube frames urban dust as a dynamic record of ecological and social processes. Working across sites from agricultural regions to the Arctic, Krom develops dust-based image works and experimental publications linking scientific observation with artistic speculation.
