Constance Jaeggi is a Swiss photographic artist based in Fort Worth, TX. Jaeggi moved to Texas from her native Switzerland in 2009 to pursue her degree from TCU and begin her competitive cutting horse-riding career. Jaeggi has studied at the New York Film Academy and most recently completed a Master of Art History and Art World Practice at Christie’s in London.

Jaeggi’s work focuses on the relationship between horse and human, in particular women. She uses horses as a backdrop for exploring themes of intimacy and identity, connection, and power dynamics.

Her work has been internationally exhibited and published. In 2021, she was shortlisted for the Critical Mass Awards. She has had two solo shows at the National Cowgirl Museum in Fort Worth, TX and has been exhibited internationally in Rome and Venice, Italy and Zurich, Switzerland, and has been published notably by The Guardian and The Washington Post.
