Anne Kern, a graduate painter and graphic artist, has her roots in Dresden and completed her art studies in Leipzig. She is a master of oil painting and charcoal techniques, moving between realistic and cubist-abstract forms. Her fascination with landscapes, particularly the rocky terrain of the Elbe Sandstone Mountains and abandoned quarries, is reflected in her work. Kern's art evokes feelings of stillness and melancholy, while simultaneously prompting the viewer to reflect on the transience of human life and our relationship with nature.
