BETTINA HACHMANN

" ... "

"The paintings of Bettina Hachmann are rather herself, a mirror of the artist, figure, landscape, colour on canvas, order and chaos as well as the desire to celebrate again and again the process of emotions through the painted picture."

"They move us. They move us, the pictures by Bettina Hachmann. Reduced in colour, they are nevertheless rich in grey tonalities and quiet nuances of colour that push to the surface. They hold secrets, allow only partial, determined insights. Through openings, through cracks. But they do not reveal everything. It is the highly aesthetic, lively works in which so much is happening. They polarise, they invite. They are symbols for traces of life. "

"In Hachmann’s case, moreover, there is not just the refinement of subtly staggered lines and fine, spidery webs, but also a narrative and dramatic complexity ..."

ABOUT_ME

WELCOME

Layer by layer

My art draws inspiration from the Nordic aesthetic, a fascination with imperfection, and the diverse experiences of my life.

Through delicate layers of soft colors and the unveiling of the canvas, I create works that offer a glimpse into the hidden. I strive to create atmospheres that touch the soul and invite people to explore their inner spaces.

At the core of my being is a profound belief in the healing power of simplicity and the acceptance of imperfections. This drive profoundly influences both my life and my art.

Sincerely! Bettina Hachmann
