"In my abstract paintings, I chase after a light – through flowing forms and rhythmic layers."

Katrin Mates' works are receiving growing international attention – several of her works have already been included in collections and curated exhibitions.

Her painting exists in the tension between structure and dissolution. Drawing on the craft tradition of decorative papermaking, she combines her knowledge of color, rhythm, and material with contemporary abstract painting. Inspired by memories of Samarkand and the light of her childhood, she explores how order arises, disintegrates, and reforms—always searching for that moment when structure becomes permeable and light emerges from within.
