Detailed description

Picture "The bathing X - keep true to yourself" (2024)

The "Bathers" series depicts self-confident and strong women in bathing suits in Pop Art style. At first glance, the viewer only recognizes the colourfully depicted bathing scene. On closer inspection, another socio-critical theme emerges, such as an ecological issue or a reference to a political or social issue of the day. "keep true to yourself" - a truly difficult task in today's challenging times! This work deals with the idea of following your own path in life, pursuing goals and believing in yourself - without losing heart. It is about growing and developing in life, but not changing for other people if this does not correspond to your own wishes, life path or character. I used acrylic paint, graphite, oil pastels, plastic masses and tissue paper for the mixed-media work.

About su sea

In 2023 and 2024, my painting was awarded 16 international art prizes.

Recognized galleries and art museums around the world curated some of these awards. Especially the first place of the art competition "World Art Awards 2023", in the category POP ART, has additionally confirmed me to further develop this unique art direction for myself and thus create my individual expression. Strong colors with contrasting effects and a poster-like style characterize my Pop Art works. My large-format portraits are the result of my inner examination of a person's biography and individual personality. This researched knowledge flows into my works as a colorful expression of emotions. I don't just paint what is recognizable at first glance, I am interested in the story behind the outer appearance. In addition to studying fine art, I also completed a degree in social pedagogy. Influenced by this knowledge, I explore socio-critical themes such as femininity, strength, resilience and the role of women in social change. Biographies of remarkable women become vivid portraits characterized by an individual style between figuration and abstraction. For my picture series "Lifelines of extraordinary women", I have selected women who, from my personal point of view, have made outstanding life achievements. These achievements take on particular significance when viewed in the context of the historical, social and political situation of the woman in question. Through my many years of teaching art in a rehabilitation clinic for women and children, I have been able to experience how painting and the intensive occupation with inner pictures can give people back their courage and self-confidence. Unrestricted, unconditional creativity can lead to a more positive self-perception, to a strengthening of one's own resources and thus to an increase in one's own resilience. This important experience and the lasting engagement with various stylistic devices and artists has had a decisive influence on my own artistic path.
