Detailed description

Picture "You are perfect!" (2024)

With "You are perfect!" I show the beauty and uniqueness of the individual through a dynamic combination of portrait art and abstract graphic elements. Radiant colors, fine lines and powerful contrasts run through the work and create an exciting visual depth. The stripes, which are my trademark in the HUMAN STRIPES® series, symbolize the diversity and complexity of human identity. They conceal and reveal at the same time, questioning perception and inviting us to discover the essentials behind the surface. My message with this work, which applies to every viewer: You are perfect, just the way you are! The portrait is based on a photograph by Laurence Monneret/Stockbyte via Getty Images

About Karin Döring

I am Karin Döring, artist for contemporary art. "The more curious we are, the more creative we become" - this guiding principle reflects my conviction that curiosity is the key to artistic development.
I am particularly fascinated by the invisibility of female strengths. While assertiveness and loudness are often seen as signs of power, it is often the soft, empathetic, compassionate abilities, the so-called "soft skills", that hold a society together. However, these qualities are all too often taken for granted or even devalued. I am dedicated to these quiet but profound forms of strength. A woman doesn't have to be loud to be strong. She doesn't have to be aggressive to assert herself. Sometimes the greatest strength lies in the ability to feel, to connect, to heal and to stay true to oneself. My works are an invitation to reflect on these perceptions. They show women not only as individuals, but also as part of a collective narrative that spans generations. Each of my portraits carries a story. A story of struggles, dreams, successes and obstacles.
