German artist Johanna Bath creates figurative paintings that consider the construct of time. Her highly poetic portraits and shadowy Still Life scenes explore alternate ways of viewing and experiencing the passage of time.
Johanna Bath studied Illustration and Design in Hamburg and graduated in 2007. After working for a gallery and a publishing house, she soon craved the creativity of hands-on studio practice. Before long, she chose to solely focus on her painting career. Johanna endeavours to convey the bittersweet transiency and impossibility of preserving moments in time. Taking something invisible, the artist whips up emotion and memory, capturing an almost palpable sense of time on canvas. Her approach is simultaneously personal, intuitive, impulsive, traditional, and resolutely modern. Johanna works with oils, acrylics, and spray paint on canvas, using materials to translate profound and personal thought into form.
