At the forefront of Euphemia Huang-Lichtenegger's art is the overarching idea that what we deem as illicit reverie or escapism is really a necessary part of our human experience ( second sentence) where we are able to form an ad hoc bridge between the inner and outer worlds. To form intimacy whether through the human bond or through our closeness with the natural world is a 'high speed gateway' to understanding what we believe to be our true selves. It is this confrontation that helps us to grow and acknowledge what lies at the heart of who we are. As a autodidactic artist, Euphemia has spent the last 12 years honing her visual and and performative craft in both the artistic and musical world. Having had the chance to perform as a classical cellist in Sweden over the course of 2 years before the onset of covid lockdown, she formed a direct affinity with Scandinavian culture and their love of nature. And in approaching art from the Scandinavian perspective of forming a respectful relationship with the natural world she quite often immerses the viewer into earthy landscapes and vignettes of a bucolic daily life. They appear raw an unrefined from the onset, but actually evoke an uncanny nostalgic quality to them
