Heike Lutzer: »My works trace my search and desires, both personal and universal, as well as uncertainties and doubts about femininity and identity.

I bring these different elements together in a conflicting way.« Abstract painter Lutzer fierce counterpoint comes with an angry expressive gesture, a mixture of painted symbols, pictograms and letters.
