Read MoreBorn in 1969 with Italian/German roots, I have been radiating my temperament in Berlin for 35 years. I have been fascinated by analogue collages since childhood because they radically and uncompromisingly turn reality on its head. As a trained advertising saleswoman, mediating between people and brands is in my blood. And so, each of my works is a call for dialogue. On closer inspection, the art lover discovers numerous figures, objects and materials in the works and senses the mood of various scenes. However, the desire to talk to others about what they have seen is inevitable. I am always in contact with fellow artists and the art-loving public. I continuously optimize my analogue, digital and mixed media working techniques and am constantly on the lookout for new ways of expression. My role models include the artists Hannah Höch, Lee Krasner and Edward Hopper.
