I work in the media of painting, sculpture, and light installation. Originally trained as a lawyer, I have been exploring the area between the figurative and abstract since 1982. My latest works question the construction of reality in the context of a media saturated world’s ubiquitous production of images. Painting to me is an act […]

Each individual is an ecosystem. Tending to the apparition of mind and soul are practices which art can have a most profound effect on in ones life. Creating works of art is a ritual, a habit for ones spirit to dwell on, toil over, and eventually let go of self-centered temporal states of being that […]

I try to present my longings, dreams, and memories of a distant world in my paintings. I hope that these aspects are revealed to the viewer, and that he can use my images to dream. gisela-zimmermann.com

Creating acrylic abstract and semi-abstract artworks allows me freedom of expression. It has no rules, no boundaries, and no limits.

I look for the common language between figurative and abstract art. Where does the first end and where does the second begin? For 24 years, I have heard both, “You are abstract!” and, “You are figurative!” In fact, I am very interested by both and with the natural mix created my own style. So, why […]

My works are mostly oils on canvas, but I also work in acrylics and pastels. A sincere and passionate painting celebrates life in all its different incarnations. My subjects are typically abstracted natural forms, landscapes, human figures, and still lifes that have their foundation in a perception of reality. I find that I am attracted […]

Colors are my emotions that guide me through the real world. The real world is complex and full of pain. What I seek in color and space is the beauty which is hidden behind human sentiment.
