Susanne Cäcilie Walther

Susanne Cäcilie Walther lives and works near Cologne / Köln (Germany). Having started with painting and drawing in the 1990s, as of 2010 she became a student with the Chinese-German artist and art professor Qi Yang for several years. From 2013 to 2015, Walther was a guest in his master class; in May 2024, she officially enrolled in Qi Yang's master class, at the IBKK Design & Art Center in Bochum / Germany, and graduated successfully in July 2026. Walther's artwork centers on experimental abstract-figurative art. Her work includes painting, drawing and printmaking. Prominent in her artworks are real people in everyday situations. Generally, she works on themes in serial format. One major series concentrates on the theme "Family". By doing "heads", Walther resurrects those whom she owes a childhood that would carry her through come rain or shine: Her parents and grandparents, of course, but also a large circle of aunts and uncles. Great family album fotos help to bring everybody back to life. Another project focusses on persons of public interest: Acclaimed authors of page-turner novels, but also prominent political leaders and human rights activists. Starting in 2023, another series features variations of a "Screaming Pope". In...
