SERIFA is the collaborative studio of artist duo Nastassja Abel and Christian Otto.

We work at the intersection of human intuition and generative systems. Based on a daily archival ritual, we translate digital explorations into the physical realm—creating unique originals, editions, and installations. Since 2021, we have collaborated internationally with cultural institutions, brands, and musicians.

Artist Statement

We seek what resists being fully known, moving between the encoded and the shifting.
