Angelika Berndt
Exploring expression through image making, my work ranges from social documentary photography to expressive abstract drawings and BEAT is a rare occasion when I show both sides of my work in the same space.
While my photography is based on micro-studies about culture and living circumstances, my fine art serves as a means to withdraw from the world and give myself a space to create and process impressions I accumulate through my other projects and living. Using line and colour I search for a new understanding of the media and the human mind. Both art forms have long since become a means to study our existence and relations. A restless explorer on a search for knowledge and understanding, I use colour and form to find new means of understanding and insights. Through these challenging yet often liberating processes I search to understand how form and/or colour, play together to evoke an inner resonance in ourselves and allow the mind to expand.
