more works by Katrin Kampmann

In her colour-intensive, brightly coloured paintings, Katrin Kampmann transports us into the imagination of a world of our own. The works live from a balanced interplay between abstraction and figuration, which challenges us as viewers to let our own imagination become part of the picture composition. Light and flowing, the thin colours pour onto the surface of the painting and are steered in new directions by the artist. Katrin Kampmann proves herself through her unique painting technique and the process of finding the picture.
