Merja Hoppe

My artwork is about change and transformation - inspired by global and social issues, nature and identity. Art is a way. To the world and oneself, get beyond restrictions, change perspectives, gain insight and create awareness. From early on, I was dedicated to drawing and painting and developed my art by exploration, later supported by artists teaching and coaching. My recent interest is in external and inner landscapes, variety of existence and paths of life. Mainly I work in acrylics, gouache, pastels, combinations of additional materials and digital art.

My educational background is in psychology, natural and communication sciences.
