Picture "The bather III - fragile" (2023)
The series of bathers is the depiction of self-confident and strong women, who are depicted in primarily bright colors (in pop art style) in swimwear. At first glance, the viewer recognizes only the colorfully depicted bathing scene. A snapshot that can raise thoughts on topics such as femininity, freedom and emancipation of women. Only on closer inspection does another socially critical theme, such as an ecological issue or a reference to a critical political or social issue of the day, become apparent. The title "fragile" refers here to our entire ecosystem - associations to the extremely fragile interrelationships and dependencies between humans, animals and the environment are to be stimulated. For the mixed media work I used acrylic paint, graphite, oil pastels and plastic masses. The image has a light structure.
