Melancolia

"To paint is to take another look at everyday life, to discover, to get closer, to be surprised, to remember, to feel".

It's an approach, an emotion that becomes an invitation, an obviousness to tell, to express oneself in lines, colors, shapes and gestures, to give voice to feelings, to write, to express oneself with the brush. The painting, the story, the pictorial poetry is born.

Attracted by structure, light and color, Christine Zwicky-Lehmann finds herself in a world of poetry, stories and questions, guided by her own feelings.

She prefers to work in mixed media (acrylics, pigments and oils), which enables her to incorporate materials such as sand, earth and other elements.

She likes it when a painting tells a story, is a kind of poetry, and doesn't give away everything inside at first encounter.

Her primary aim is to engage the viewer, to draw them into a relationship with her canvases.
