Profile: Ilona Schmidt

See Ilona Schmidts artwork here

Since 2007 I have devoted myself to free artistic studies, with a focus on painting and sculpture. My work has been presented in numerous exhibitions at home and abroad, and has been nominated and awarded several times. Since 2013 I have been a member of the professional association for visual artists.

People are the focus of my art

In my work I try to capture the diversity and complexity of the human being. By using different techniques and materials I create works that appeal to the viewer's emotions and thoughts and stimulate thought.

My artistic work is characterized by a deep engagement with people and their environment. I explore the relationships between the individual and society, between body and mind, between past and present.

My goal is to use my art to build a bridge between the viewer and the subject matter presented. I want to arouse emotions, raise questions and give food for thought. Because for me art is not only an expression of my own thoughts and feelings, but also a medium to get in touch with other people and inspire them.
