About this artwork
There is an expression in German "sie hat ein Vogel". Literally translated, this means "she has a bird", but it means that somebody is a bit crazy, off in the head. It was with great amusement that the artist thought of that expression while placing the flamingo on her head.
This piece is painted with oil on canvas and incorporates gilding with coloured silver and 24ct. gold. Egger loves using gilding in her work, as the pieces truly become alive, constantly moving and changing with ambient light.

« "I want my art to set off an avalanche of freedom, thereby giving others permission to shine." »
Adrienne Egger’s bold, narrative-driven paintings explore transformation—where strength meets vulnerability, control meets surrender. Blending surrealism, impressionism, and expressionism, she crafts immersive storyscapes of emotion, memory, and possibility. Born in the Rocky Mountains and now in the Austrian Alps, her unconventional upbringing fuels a fascination with life’s contradictions. Her work holds space for reflection and affirms the full spectrum of being, reclaiming complexity as quiet strength. With collectors from Hong Kong to New York and features in luxury publications and auction houses, Adrienne also founded UNARTIG – Avantgarde Art Salon, curating immersive interdisciplinary experiences that foster art, culture, and community. Through Graceland, her nonprofit, she supports transformation at life’s pivotal moments. Her practice spans painting, design, fashion, and coaching, each a thread in her mission to turn life’s raw materials into beauty and insight.
