Yellow will forever be one of my favourite colours. You can never be sad when seeing yellow 💛

back in the studio, but still supercharged with the inspiring energy of the CeU loves Kunst Award - currently the only art award that supports women artists and with that promotes their visibility in the art world. I am honoured and humbled to have received this award, next to my talented colleagues and . A massive thank you to Kristina Tröger, president of the .unternehmerinnen and Initiator of the award, as well as the jury for this incredible opportunity. Thank you to for all her efforts into putting together a great show and to for being the wonderful host of this event. It was truly inspiring to feel the energy of the impressive women network. ✨✨✨

I’m so so grateful to be back at for the next three weeks. I spend the first 48 hours shaking hands with the landscape, the sea and many familiar and new faces. Excited to pick up on some old thoughts and ideas that I connect to this place and see how to move them forward. 🌊

My studio is on the top floor, so naturally I have the privilege to be exposed to big parts of the sky everyday. (That is a real luxury, especially in a big city like Berlin). Earlier this year I began making small circle paintings of the sky every day - at first just small water colours and now they’re again turning into something bigger and more sculptural. They’re a time line of the ever changing sky, filtered through my own perception. A collection of fleeting moments….

anyway, today I’m cutting out more circles to collect more skies :)

studio today. Swipe to see the blurry cloud (aka the artist) disappear and make way for the actual work. :)☁️
