Jeux de lignes et de couleurs 
de Marie-Kathrin Reiter-Daspet

Comment dans ce monde surexposé aux images, un dessin ou une peinture peuvent-ils encore interpeller ? Quand est-il de l’autre ? De la relation à l’autre ?

Dessiner l’être humain, que ce soit un portrait ou un nu, c’est une rencontre muette qui se tisse d’humain à humain. De cette rencontre, de ce face-à-face avec le modèle, cet alter ego, jaillit un nouvel être : l’œuvre. Il m’importe de garder comme une ... Read more »

Art inspires me and has shaped me through the culture of the Allgau landscape, in which I am therefore deeply rooted.

Moreover, art is for me both a source of inspiration and a way to find balance amid increasingly difficult and stressful living conditions and changes.

I am art therapist and educator. I work among other things, with school classes.

«Le souffle des possibles» est un projet qui interroge l’Anthropocène, cette ère actuelle où l’humanité, par ses actions, modifie de manière irréversible le cours de la nature.

À travers une approche symbolique et poétique, l’œuvre explore le lien complexe, et parfois déchiré, qui unit l’humain à son environnement. Elle invite à une réflexion profonde sur notre rapport au monde naturel, en suggérant non seulement la fragilité de ce lien, mais aussi la possibilité d’une ... Read more »

Sparkle: The Spirit in Everything.

"My textile work explores the shimmering edge between exhuberance and grace- where surface beauty meets spirit. 

Using luminous fabrics and layered textures, I invite viewers to look beyond decoration and discover vitality within the material itself. Textile art, once dismissed as "women's work," has gained new ground as a medium of power, nuance and meaning. I create large scale tapestry-like hangings to convey this."

Sheree Rasmussen is a Canadian textile ... Read more »

NYMPHS 2.0

In Nymphs 2.0, I revisit the classical tradition of depicting bathing women—from ancient nymphs to 19th-century odalisques—but through my own lens as a contemporary female artist. I wanted to question the long-standing art historical gaze that has rendered women as passive, idealized subjects of desire. By softening focus, abstracting form, and removing identifying features, I’m intentionally dissolving the body—not to erase it, but to reclaim it.

These figures are no longer ... Read more »

After about ten years of painting and drawing, I began sculpting at the age of 25—an art form I had always dreamed of exploring.

For the first few years, I mainly worked with clay, before gradually experimenting other materials: papier-mâché, plaster, wire, stone…

I don't have a favorite material; the choice depends on the subject I wish to tackle or simply on my mood. Clay and plaster offer a particular sensuality and flexibility, while wire or stone require more physical energy. ... Read more »

Painting is my language, and each canvas is a page on which I record my emotions, thoughts and vision of the world.

I love to travel, and during my trips I find inspiration and make sketches, then embody my emotions on canvas. In my paintings, I convey the beauty of cities, flowers and landscapes.

I work with oil paints. I use three techniques in my paintings: pointillism, classicism and impressionism. Organic textures, the play of light and colour nuances are central to my work, reflecting ... Read more »

He creates exquisite porcelain icons, paintings, and decorative vessels, which draw on millennia-old visual and material traditions from his native Bulgaria but deploy an artistic technique entirely his own.

Parmakov has developed a distinctive decorative language ... Read more »
