Anja Witt

My paintings are an engagement with oceans, their physical processes, and their internal life. Currents, eddies, and waves hang together over vast distances. I try to capture these relations in an abstract and associative way on my canvases. I don't want to illustrate, but to open up new spaces, layers and forces in painting. I prefer to work on a large scale. For many years i am working with galleries and teaching painting to adults.
