About the Item

Katharina Hormel has two separate bodies of work. On the hand, she paints minimalistic every day scenes of life with acrylics and gold leaf. The people she portrays are out and about going about their daily life, enjoying a walk in the park, cycling, playing football etc. Yet these little moments are the ones defining our lives and that leave us feeling happy and fulfilled. Living in the here and now is so vital for our daily happiness and the artist wants to highlight those moments spent together with family and friends. The gold or silver used in her paintings changes depending on the light and makes for a warm and reflective contrast to the black, white and grey. Elegant in their color scheme Hormel's paintings are beautifully contemporary and unobtrusive, yet full of life, happiness and details. On the other hand she is inspired by Picasso’s figurative abstractions. Her second body of work are joyful geometric abstractions of female bodies, with color parcels interacting or overlapping. Her figures come in all shapes and sizes, yet the women are at ease with their bodies and simply enjoy their movements - whether it be dancing or reclining or hugging… Portraying women is an important factor for Hormel. Especially within art it is vital to value different perspectives, behaviors and aspirations to portray diversity. Women are still underrepresented in the art world and around the world women are still fighting for equal rights. Women need equal ease of access to resources and opportunities, including economic participation and decision-making for societies to thrive and flourish. But women also need to learn to form better networks amongst each other, to break that glass ceiling and help each other achieve their goals. In Hormels paintings the women are thriving, full of life, vibrant and joyful. Connected to each other by various colors and thus form of a bigger picture together.
