Picture "The bather V - sound of silence" (2023)
The series "The Bathers" is about the representation of self-confident and strong women, who are depicted in primarily gaudy 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 become apparent, such as an ecological question or a reference to a political or social topic of current events. The title "sound of silence" refers to the idea of consciously exposing oneself to silence, actively seeking it and finding oneself - to "pause" the often loud and moving world for once... For the mixed media work I have used acrylic paint, graphite, oil pastels, tissue paper and plastic masses. The image thus has a light structure.
