Intense visual experiences

In her paintings, Rebekka Steiger takes us into strange and colourful dream worlds. Sometimes flowery, sometimes eerie, her paintings are characterised by the dialectic of statics and movement. Steiger's pictures show landscapes, trees, and figures, which she combines into unfinished stories that are sometimes reminiscent of myths and legends. Drawing-like brushstrokes and painterly gestures are superimposed on her canvases to create colourful, dense compositions.

The artist's first comprehensive monograph, entitled Bingfeng, is being published to coincide with the exhibition at Kunstmuseum Thun. It includes a foreword by Helen Hirsch and essays by Claudia Jolles, Patricia Bieder, Sophia Remer, Peter Stohler, and Chiara Ottavi, as well as texts by the artist.
