Detailed description
Picture "The bather XV - part of it" (2024)
The series "bathing women" deals with the theme of "femininity, self-confidence, self-esteem". At first glance, the viewer often only realizes the bathing scene depicted. A closer look then reveals an ecological theme, a reference to a political or social issue of the day or a personal focus. "Die Badende XV - part of it", shows a woman lying on randomly assembled fragments of maps and whose body is partly made up of maps itself. The central theme is that all life on earth is connected in some way, that we are all part of the world and the world is part of us. And that it is important to protect and respect the sensitive ecosystem and the coexistence of all living beings. I used acrylic paints, paper and graphite for this work. The surface of the painting therefore has some textured parts.
