Nana Ohnesorge

Nana Ohnesorge aims to develop a dialogue concerning the iconic, and its significance to collective memory and identity. Collage-like elements of juxtaposition, layering and transparency are translated into drawings and paintings, or transformed into cohesive sculptures, appropriating features of historic Romanticism, Surrealism and Pop Art.
Elements of randomness, collision of contrasts, tension, and psychological and symbolic associations highlight issues such as the human condition, the passing of time, the fragility of existence, and the impermanence of structures in the face of history.
