Manuela Maidhof

I start my work more spontaneously and let myself be guided by my intuition. According to the beautiful quote by Frida Kahlo: “Nothing is absolute. Everything changes, everything moves, everything flies and goes away. » A long process of addition and subtraction emerges on the canvas, a metaphor for life itself. I mainly paint abstractly in acrylics and am currently experimenting a lot with sand, dirt and paper. But I also love creating figurative art; women in particular, painted in an expressive and naturalistic way, are one of my favorite subjects. With my paintings I want to remind you that we are all part of nature and that we are not separate from it or our environment. When we reflect on our roots, we reconnect with our soul. We can feel ourselves and our needs more clearly and achieve our dreams more easily. For more moments of happiness for everyone, and more peace for our world.
