About Ulrike Langen
During the time I was creatively active as a trained fashion designer, I developed the first works that can be attributed to the visual arts.
In the center always stagings of the feminine, combined with a Mediterranean joie de vivre. In my paintings I ultimately show not only the woman, but the man himself. It is always about the game of life, love, joy, happiness and life fulfillment.
It is important to me to reach the viewer of my images in a positive, life-affirming way,
to let him feel the lightness of being.
In the past, I made my paintings using digital contemporary tools. Today I also work with the traditional techniques of painting; mostly it is acrylic, ink and pastel on canvas. The works are dominated by strong and bright colors. They consist of several layers of paint, which give a great texture. Depending on the place, color, surface and material appear ambiguous or mysterious. From an extensive image archive, consisting of my own photos and images from magazines, I take the templates for my portraits.
