Carmen Dusmet Carrasco is a Spanish designer and artist based in The Hague and Amsterdam (NL). Her graphic design practice is mainly focused on book design. Through her autonomous practice, she explores how our bodies mediate coexistence. She engages with topics of self-representation, identity, labour and pop-culture amongst others, through the cinematic, video, animation, graphic design, sound and text. Carmen’s lexicon ranges from home-video to personal archives in low and high resolution. She employs practices of describing, observing, reframing and negotiating as methods to own and reclaim knowledge.
