About this artwork

With the pencil, Anne Wölk succeeds in depicting waves and the light reflected in them in such a way that the maritime scenery is brought to life. The water reaches the shore foaming and breaks roaring on the rocks. The viewer almost seems to hear the roaring sea. Wölk's Seestück stands in the field of tension between older maritime art and contemporary drawing, in which maritime themes continue to play a role as spiritual moments. The artist precisely… analyzes nature with a pencil and draws attention to our coexistence with it. The earth is ruled by natural forces that determine your appearance. Man should try to live in harmony with his environment, whereby the waves are reminiscent of the cosmic flow of energy and life, as we find it in the Chinese philosophy of Feng Shui.

« 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.
