STUDIO: Verena Issel

Her multifaceted formations live from the interplay of the individual components, which fit into the composition without losing their autonomy. Abstract elements stand next to figurative ones, monochrome color surfaces next to wild patterns, and traditional oil painting next to misappropriated materials such as drain pipes, pipe cleaners, or bricks.

Issel's space-specific works combine socio-political themes, literary references, and an intensive examination of art history to create multi-layered arrangements.
