Seestück 1 – Seescape 1 (2024) 미술작품 Skadi Engeln 로

Skadi Engeln‘s parents’ scientific backgrounds and Catholic upbringing fostered an environment filled with inquisitive discussions about fundamental questions concerning life, the universe, and humanity. This exposure to the intricate enigma of the world has been a major influence on Engeln’s artistic expression. During her studies between 1990 and 1995, she explored the expressive capacities of color and form, investigating their interplay in various combinations. Rather than unveiling hidden secrets, Engeln sought to preserve the enigma that is often associated with beauty.

Engeln has exhibited her work in numerous solo and group exhibitions around the world, including Berlin, Düsseldorf, Bonn, Hamburg, Munich, Paris, Graz, New York, and Molde. She received her education at FH Ottersberg, studying sculpture under Robert van de Laar and painting with Michael Kohr and Hermanus Westendorp. She currently resides and works in both Berlin and France.

Engeln’s interest in psychology led her to explore various therapies, acquiring valuable insights into colors, forms, and materials, as well as their interactions and communicative properties. Although her artistic focus initially began with sculpture, she later shifted to painting, allowing her to experiment more easily with ideas of dissolution and composition.
She creates paintings, as well as woodcuts and silkscreens. Her subject matter revolves around landscapes and figures, with a keen interest in how landscapes can reflect the world. They are constantly in a state of transition, with elements like light, water, weather, and human presence perpetually causing it to undergo decomposition. These transitions unveil the essence, transcendence, and beauty of the landscape. She parallels between the nature of painting and landscape, as both have the ability to dissolve the specific, solid, visible, and familiar in order to trace the invisible, without ever fully comprehending it.
