On Gatherings

Reoccurring subject of Katharina´s work is the topic of group dynamics, drawing inspiration from photography and classical painting. She is exploring the complexities of relationships, power dynamics, and interconnectedness that define our social fabric.

The “Gatherings“ paintings capturing social studies and history serve as a mesmerizing visual narrative of life's choreographed compositions. Each picture freezes a moment in time, offering a window into the ongoing performance that is human existence. Katharina ist compiling photographic images from her archive along with personal memories to create her own mythology.

At the same time, Katharina questions the apparent universality. From birth, people are assigned certain characteristics, such as gender, class and ethnicity. These characteristics influence their life chances to a large and complex extent.
