Description
About artist: Born in 1972 in Erlangen, Germany, Katja Wittmer grew up in Munich, Brazil and the U.S.A. where she graduated from Auburn University with a cum laude degree in Fine Arts in 1997. She has travelled the world extensively since then. Her work has been shown in numerous exhibitions worldwide, including New York, Manila, Hong Kong, Vienna, Munich, Mumbai and Dublin. Katja Wittmer lives and works in Ennis, Ireland. In her authentic abstract paintings, Katja Wittmer emphasises the hidden, the subtle, the profound. Her technique of dripping paint, scattering textures and the use of intense colour accentuate the volatility of the moment. Her paintings are multi-layered and offer various dimensions which challenge the boundaries of perception. The artist consciously creates a subtle, colour centred stimulation of personal associations.
About artwork: The spark, igniting a fire, starting the light, alive. A composition of acrylic paint, plaster, sand and pastels, inspired by the volatility of the moment. Exploring an intense, yet playful way how colours create light and shadows while drawing you into hidden depths.
