ABOUT

My name is Verena Spitz and I was born in Würselen - Germany in 1982. I live and work in Aachen since 2001.
I am a hybrid being consisting of visual merchandiser, communication designer and artist. Since my childhood, I have been expressing myself visually through drawing, fashion, photography, painting and crafts. I actually wanted to study fashion design... but then I decided to train as a visual merchandiser and study communication design. I have been an independent artist since the beginning of 2024. But I didn't study art. It's just something that comes naturally to me.

My works often deal with subconscious themes. It is not uncommon for the finished painting to reveal the emotion or thought that inspired it. Increasingly, global issues are becoming the driving force behind many of my works. Social, political and climate-related issues, as well as my own processing of these topics. In summary, the unrest around us and the desire for peace and balance.

I work mainly in the field of painting, but occasionally also create objects. The paintings could be considered primarily abstract, but not always. The objects move between the abstract and the explicit.
