About this artwork

Anne Wölk likes to look at the moon at night. She has loved and collected science fiction novels since childhood. She is particularly interested in the extraterrestrial sky view of the black moon horizon. The lunar horizon is black because it has no atmosphere. The appearance of a world's sky depends on the density and composition of its atmosphere. However, even from the Earth's moon, the sun still appears so bright that it is impossible to see… stars during the day. Many stars are visible during the lunar night, as evidenced by ultraviolet cameras from the Apollo 16 mission. One of the most prominent features of the lunar sky is the view of Earth. Their visible diameter is about four times as large
like the diameter that the moon has in the firmament of the earth. The terrestrial globe at the zenith appears more than 50 times brighter than the full moon for the terrestrial observer and shines as a blue planet. The drawing is in a 30 x 60 cm frame.

« With human warmth, I try to translate the grandeur and the size of the cold, empty, and hostile universe into emotionally tangible paintings. »

Anne Wölk is a Berlin-based painter whose work explores the intersections of astronomy, speculative fiction, and contemporary landscape painting. With atmospheric color and precise lighting, she develops visionary topographies that straddle realism and imagination. She has had international solo exhibitions at the CICA Museum (South Korea) and the Casa da Cultura Ericeira Museum (Portugal). In 2025, her work was featured in the Herbstsalon of the Kunstverein Erlangen at the Kunstpalais and in the Casa da Cultura Ericeira's 2024 Retrospectiva. Her work will be published in 2025 in Issue 9 of Artsin Square magazine, curated by Galerie Droste. Wölk's painting emerges from the dialogue between scientific curiosity and the search for imaginary habitats beyond the known.
