Andrea Peckedrath

I am a freelance artist, creating paintings and sculptures.

My pieces are created from natural materials such as earth, ash, sand and rock flour. Although I create paintings that reflect nature I only work with natural pigment to create pieces with subtle and delicate color palettes.

The almost object-like character of the images is given an archaic-looking graphic level by incisions that make the lower layers of paint visible again.

The rough surface also characterizes my ceramic work.

Socio-political themes are becoming increasingly important to me yet nature remains one of the main sources of inspiration.
