SOLD At the end of the day Painting

Juxtapositions of transparency, textures, gestures, shapes and traces of color on raw canvas, paper, layers of gauze or plexiglass explore the question of memory. How do we represent what we think we know and think we remember? Our memories can be recounted and remembered to infinity according to the point of departure of our story and the context in which we remember. My interest in the ambiguity of perception and in what we think we remember, as well as in how artists can contribute to scientific study on perception and understanding the creative process have led me to actively collaborate and design research projects with various leading neuroscientists at top universities in the USA, Germany and Switzerland. I currently have two scientific research grants. ​I have given public lectures and participated in academic study days at museums, galleries as well as at academic institutions on the subject of perception, my own artistic process and the place of art and artists in society today. Born in Switzerland, I moved to New York when I was 16. After earning a degree in Creative writing and International Relations from Johns Hopkins University (with a 4 year scholarship for Outstanding Academic achievement) , I started a publishing house with a friend in New York. When I returned to Switzerland, I earned a postgraduate degree in the visual arts from the Visual Art School in Basel in 2009. Since graduating from art school late 2009, my work and process has been shown in over 70 solo and group shows in museums, galleries and art fairs in Europe, USA and Switzerland. My work is featured in public and major private collections in Switzerland , Europe, Australia, Canada, and the USA. I am a member of Visarte, the Swiss professional artist association.
