About this artwork
Broken Desert 1 is a mixed-media painting depicting a fractured, arid landscape suspended between earth and sky. The lower section is dominated by a cracked surface created with a self-made modeling paste, which naturally split during the drying process, forming deep fissures reminiscent of parched desert soil. These cracks evoke erosion, drought, and the physical vulnerability of the land. Above this broken ground, a muted blue-grey sky stretches… across the composition. Subtle textures and irregular marks emerge from an underlying earlier painting, allowing traces of a previous image to remain visible. These remnants introduce a sense of memory and time, suggesting layers of history beneath the present surface. Created using acrylic paints and textured modeling paste, the work balances material roughness with restrained color. The painting invites the viewer to contemplate themes of fragility, persistence, and transformation.
Doreen Gehrke is a self-taught artist and geologist whose scientific background significantly influences her artistic work. Structures, strata, natural processes of formation, and the aesthetic language of the earth are reflected in many of her pieces. This combination of geological knowledge and intuitive painting technique forms the basis for her Emotional Landscapes – atmospheric, often abstract landscapes that depict inner states, moods, and memories rather than real places. The pricing of her artwork is primarily based on the technical and time-related effort of the painting process, while the size of the work plays a secondary role.
