Adrienne Egger
Adrienne Egger is an artist based in Austria whose prize-winning paintings have garnered international recognition. Concepts of inner worlds are portrayed through fleeting moments, the natural world and vintage-chic film scenes. Though working primarily with oils, she incorporates spray paint, patinas, rust, metal leafing, resins and lighting into her art.
She says: “Lightness, focus, and serious fun: I strongly believe that everyone is creative and that to create is to be alive. The art is to find the throbbing pulse, the golden mean of lightness and depth, effortlessness and expertise. It is the tightrope between pop culture and nostalgia, timeless craftsmanship and modern technology, realism and hope, that inspires and challenges my creative eye. It is a challenge I thrive on.”
