We are pleased to share seven multimedia works by German artist Annina Roescheisen. In these recent works the artist continues to investigate the boundaries between polarities such as dream and reality. Her palette of vivid colors continues to thrive in this work, where new shapes and structures align on the canvas and new visual thought forms are built. Roescheisen's work invites the viewer to immerse themselves in the frequencies of color.
Annina Roescheisen (b. 1982) is a German artist based in Lisbon and New York. She practices in a wide range of media such as drawing, painting, sculpture, installation, video, photography, and performance art.
Roescheisen explores the nature of perception and aesthetic processing, investigating the boundaries between polarities such as dream and reality, visible and invisible, audible and inaudible. Her work invites the viewer to immerse themselves in the frequencies of color and their transcendent impact on our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies. Drawing inspiration from religious iconography, poetry, literature, bestiaries, spiritual philosophy, and nature mysticism, Roescheisen brings her northern European cultural heritage—German romanticism, transcendentalism, gothic architecture, Nordic shamanism, myths and fairy tales—into her art. Her work embodies humanity‘s enduring fascination with the occult and the supernatural. In her process, Roescheisen mixes pigments and minerals intuitively to create shapes and structures on the canvas, utilizing her connection between the body and the canvas.
