About this artwork

Space doesn't cooperate. Astronauts come to this conclusion in the first days of their difficult training. A rocket suitable for space travel has thousands of individual components, on the reliability of which the success of a rocket launch depends. Therefore, the moment of the "lift-off" is a moment of hope and dreams, but also an emotional state full of tension and adrenaline. What should I do if something still goes wrong?
The drawing shows the… moment of the rocket launch as an arc between heaven and earth. It could thus be understood as a shining metaphor for being torn away from a difficult life situation. Perhaps this means a departure to new horizons or breaking new ground. The interpretations are varied and different for each observer. In this little work of art, the rocket initially serves as a pictorial form for rapid movement and only then becomes a symbol for a long ascent.

« 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.
