About this artwork
Deserts have fascinated me for years, and I've had the opportunity to experience the Namib Desert and parts of the Sahara, having worked for several years in the Sahel, on the edge of the desert. Therefore, the special atmosphere, the light, the smell, the crunch of the sand beneath my feet, are very familiar to me. I'm trying to capture this fascination with a small series. Using desert sand, ash particles, charcoal, and pigments, I've given this… acrylic work a very special texture and created a vibrant, semi-abstract landscape.
The combination of materials tangibly expresses the rough, earthy textures and warmth of the desert. I wanted to capture the unbridled energy and quiet power of nature, which will create a calming yet inspiring atmosphere in your space.
Annette G. Rathjen is a versatile artist with a background in photography, painting, and printmaking. She works with a mixture of painting, collage, and drawing, layering elements upon elements. She uses acrylic paints, charcoal, chalk, but also sand, coffee grounds, marble dust, ash, and sometimes old nautical charts. This creates a tension: lines and colors assert themselves, are covered over. Something new breaks through, something old remains visible. It's like a conversation on the canvas—sometimes a dialogue, sometimes an argument.
The result is images that reveal both structure and movement. They are not linear narratives, but fragments, superimpositions that challenge us; inviting us to let go of our perception, not to stop at the first step, but to inspire us as viewers and invite our own interpretation. Her works are exhibited in France, Austria, Italy, and the USA.
