About — CONSTANZE WAEGER

“In my works I bring together physical components and immaterial concepts. It is not the thing you see.. not the body, nor the colour..not the bird or the plant.. it is an immaterial concept... it’s a feeling that I paint.”

Constanze Waeger is a German born artist. She began her creative education at the Chelsea College of Art in London, finishing with a Bachelor of Art Hons degree at the Edinburgh College of Art, Scotland in film and TV. Upon her move to the USA, she became a producer and continued her passion for fine art. Her work is now in various collections in the US, Spain, UK and Kenya, to name a few.

Her figurative work embodies the pain that allows healing, a desire for growth and the recognition of our chains in a search for freedom. Her art advocates her sensuality and the vulnerability of her emotion, her life, her journey; a collection where every piece contains a tile towards the study of Becoming.

“There is as much grace as there are bloody disproportions in Constanze Waeger’s silhouetted surrealism. As much pain as expression in the bodily manifestations of growth and development depicted in the symmetrical, almost graphic pieces. A bird reflecting a female body, responding to the dynamic flow of her posture – all created by the many, many refined brush strokes that creates an almost three dimensional depth in the paintings.

The melancholy that echoes through the various works can’t hold down a vivacity that also lives in the paintings. The quivering reluctance of birth, hiding in the comfort zone, and at the same time this undeniable sign of growth, out of pain and movement and life. The standing alone spirit of a being unfolding – Becoming, is as provoking and impelling as the apparent intimacy of the artist.“
