Inspiration:
Her art work is inspired by human perception and its correlation with nature.
For her abstract series she created the term Quantum art, in the meaning of a bridge between science and art.
These works are inspired by quantum -physics, chaos-theory, neuro-physiology, consciousness studies, geometry, fractals and recursive- mathematic patterns.
For the big sized „Rorschach“ series, a psychoanalytical test that had been used by Sigmund Freud to make the unconscious visible and interpretable, she paints over 7 ft wide mirrored and symmetric paintings in oil on canvas as symbols for the left and right brain hemispheres. The viewer is invited to follow his own perception and to make his own interpretation of the motive. For this series she dilutes the oil paint in a way, to make it look like water colors - light and transparent, applied in many layers to give it profoundness.
The paintings from the series „Abstract Neuronal Network“, with over 20 squared works, are mostly monochromatic and they show the clusters that has been observed in the neuronal networks. She did not put her signature on those paintings, with regard to the number of permutations in which a square picture can be shown. Here we have (at least) 8 possibilities (4 sides and 4 corners) to present a painting, by rotating it in 45 degrees.
In her figurative works she focuses on underwater worlds, Japanese koi paintings and portraits of traditional geishas. 2005 she started the series „Underwater ladies“.
Since 2014 she started a new figurative series with little figures, always with an umbrella, positioned in wide spaces with depth.
Techniques:
Her main technique is oil on canvas and she also experiments with indian ink and coffee for the drawings and paintings in the „Paperwork“ series. For some works in the „Organic“ series, she uses both, acrylic and oil paint.
