Künstler Natascha Schoenaich

Natascha Schoenaich


Natascha Schoenaich’s vivid compositions are set as theatrical plays in a liminal space between the spiritual and the terrestrial. The artist expresses the vulnerability and darkness of human nature through subjective imageries and mundane references. Human bodies emerge from the oil colours and engage with the viewer’s mind and gaze always in a subjective and subconscious dialogue. The mundane element of each painting opens on to other post-human experiences suggested by distorted and contrasting colour choices, unknown life forms or simply recognisable human bodies in the liminality of emotions and spiritual dimensions. Schoenaich effectively channels the contemporary human condition, not without some melancholy and black humour which make her works dynamic and ever-evolving under the viewer’s eyes.   

  

Schoenaich lives and works in Berlin. She is a self-taught visual artist who mainly expresses herself through oil painting and watercolours. She was part of the collaborative project Algoist, where she experimented with sound installations and conceptual art, and has widely exhibited in group and solo shows around Berlin and in Porto (Portugal) since 2014.
