Burkhard Felies

Burkhard Felies is an artist and graphic designer living in Potsdam. In his paintings and photography, he explores the interplay of light, color, and structure. His works oscillate between abstraction and figuration, reflecting the quiet beauty of natural forms. Combining artistic intuition and design precision, he creates works that are both visually and emotionally compelling.

At the age of 16 he received his first artistic commissions. After attending the School of Design in Kassel, he studied graphic design at the Hannover University of Applied Sciences, Department of Art and Design. At the same time, he was able to deepen his great interest in art here, as art, sculpture and photography were also taught. During his studies he placed a particular focus on painting techniques, both in theory and in application. He then became self-employed and studied at the same time at the University of the Arts in Berlin. He moved to Potsdam, where he now works as both an artist and graphic designer.
