Katja Gramann

Katja is an inventive picture maker. Her work is diverse, utilizing a variety of techniques ranging from expressionist-style painting to mixed-media and collage. Her images have a raw, freshness that reference Japanese Zen aesthetics. Her curious approach to the creative process generates a varied yet cohesive body of work. Each image is loaded with energy, color, beautiful line work and mark-making. It’s clear, Katja enjoys the act of painting and experimenting with color. Her finished works capture the process into forms of presentation to showcase her discoveries.

ARTIST STATEMENT

I have four main directions in my art. On the one hand, the abstract free painting with acrylic paint in large format on canvas, then I also like to deal with structuring materials such as ash, sand, rock flour, coffee grounds and pigments in my painting. I am happy to work with these so-called mixed media on wood. Then I am passionate about creating abstract collages from fine Chinese paper and finally I work with Chinapaper and Resin to create the “Glamour Gems” (Glanzstücke).

"Art lifts life out of mediocrity, so Art has the power to make life special and exciting."
