Silver Rain 80x80 cm Acryl on Canvas Abstract Art Deco Metal Painting

Exclusive Arts is actually Engineering Art because Irina Erhardt explores the symbiotic relationship between art and engineering in a fascinating way through metalwork and grinding techniques. With a degree in mechanical engineering from the renowned TU Berlin and a keen sense of creative expression, she has carved out a unique position in the art scene. Her paintings are characterized by abstract forms, vibrant color palettes, and precise geometric patterns, which emerge through the refined application of acrylic paints and various blending techniques. Her decision to explicitly incorporate metal into her works goes beyond her education; she chooses metal to bring strength and power into the interior and to create a symbolic dimension. For Erhardt, metal is not just a material but an expressive form that enlivens the interior of her works and carries deep meaning. It symbolizes not only strength but also lends the images a unique expressiveness and energy. Additionally, she has developed several grinding techniques and skillfully employs them to give her works a unique touch. The resulting images often exude a metallic sheen and require a high level of craftsmanship and specialized knowledge to realize. Through her participation in various regional exhibitions, she has already gained recognition and sold a considerable number of her works. Her remarkable perspective and pursuit of innovation have established her as an outstanding artist at the intersection of art and engineering. Her future promises further fascinating developments on her artistic journey.
