Annette Becker is an established German sculptor, painter and photographer whose works have widely featured in exhibitions and publications across the country. In her work, she deals with feelings such as closeness and vulnerability, as well as general interpersonal relationships. Her sculptures serve to capture the unconscious, and she often uses text and mirrored images to destable the viewer and encourage contemplation. Becker's preferred material is wax, for she views it as the perfect means and message of protection.
